It is with a heavy heart that I share this notice.

Due to finances & the impact of COVID-19, the Board of Directors voted unanimously to permanently close the agency, effective Thursday, August 13, 2020.

I want to thank you for your belief in and support of our mission.

June is PTSD Awareness Month. PTSD is a mental health problem that some people develop after experiencing or witnessing a life-threatening, traumatic event.

Practicing mindfulness can rewire the way your brain reacts to stress.
