Mental Health Advocacy & Coaching Center
I Have a Dream
One of my favorite speeches of all time is, "I Have a Dream," by Martin Luther King. And even though his dream is much different than mine, I also have a dream. I have a dream that people in our community won't have to suffer with mental health issues, that there will be enough help available for everyone who needs it, and that our community can proudly say, "We care about the individuals in our community, and we will help them when and where it is needed."
We want to help individuals get back on track so they can live a better quality of life. We want the youth in our community to take responsibility for themselves and have more confidence. We want to take stress off parents so they can be better for their children. We want to prove to the individuals in our community that they are capable of more than they think, that they can reach their goals if they are willing to work for them, and that there is support available to them.
Community Connections is willing to work for that dream and do everything possible to see it become a reality. But we need your help to do that.
Our goal of $25,000 to open the doors to our new center is just the beginning. We plan to open a thrift store within the center to support our mission, as well. All services such as peer counseling, coaching and mentoring, youth programs, and adult workshops will be free.
We know we have a long way to do before our dream becomes a reality, but we hope we can count on your support. We have several ways you can help! You can donate funds, volunteer, donate office furniture, or contribute to our holiday book fundraiser. Click on the links to find out more.
Thank you for your support!
