Gratitude is more than a feeling; it’s an action. 💛

This Thanksgiving, we are endlessly grateful for the employees, donors, volunteers, and partners who step up every day to support local families.

Because of this community, more children are sleeping safely, more parents feel supported, and more families are staying together.

Thank you for helping us build a community where everyone has a place to belong. Wishing you and yours a warm, meaningful Thanksgiving!

Every October 10, people around the world observe World Mental Health Day to raise awareness of the stigmas surrounding mental illness and the importance of promoting mental health.

Today is a reminder that while many people experience struggles with their mental well-being, these challenges often go unseen.
Breaking the stigma, checking in on loved ones, and knowing how to reach out can change a life.

At Closer to Home, we offered a program design to break down the stigma about mental health.
Our goal with "Viewpoints" is to help youth ages 12-24 years old practice a more resilient self, build social-emotional skills and gain new social connections.

Viewpoints works with organizations, groups, families, and youth in a trauma-informed and community-minded setting.

October 4 is the National Day of Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.
It serves as a reminder of the ongoing violence faced by Indigenous communities and the urgent need for systemic change.

True reconciliation requires collective action.
Today, Closer to Home encourages our community to step up:

- Reach out to your local elected officials and demand their commitment to the 231 Calls to Justice.
- Listen to, uplift, and share Indigenous voices and grassroots organizations.
- Educate yourself and those around you on the National Inquiry's findings.

Let’s stand together in solidarity, remembrance, and action.

Today and every day, we remember that Every Child Matters! 🧡

Today, on Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we hold space for the children who never returned home from residential schools, the survivors, and the generations of families and communities carrying this legacy.

At Closer to Home, Every Child Matters is more than a message. It’s a guiding priority in our daily work to nurture and protect young people.

We encourage everyone to take time to learn, reflect, and stand together in reconciliation.
