January 2023 Newsletter
Happy 2023!
It is wonderful to look back on all that we accomplished in the past year. From events, to lectures, to workshops and more, we have definitely learned and grown quite a bit! We'd also like to emphasize the work that each of our staff members do throughout the day. Our helplines are always open; clinical therapists, housing navigators and case managers are always working with survivors to improve mental wellbeing, stability, safety and more. We are excited to welcome a new year, but want to take a moment to embrace all we have navigated together, as staff, and as a community. Let's continue to make each other better in the coming year.
Our admin offices will be closed on Monday, January 16 for Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
