🎓 To the Class of 2026 and those taking the next step we have potential scholarships available to help with your journey.
Graduation is a milestone worth celebrating… and for many, it’s just the beginning of a new journey. Whether you’re heading to college, trade school, or continuing your education in another way, financial barriers shouldn’t stand in the way of your goals.
That’s why CONCERN is proud to offer scholarship opportunities to help support our clients, kids in foster care, and youth adopted through CONCERN, as they pursue higher education and build brighter futures.
Visit www.concern4kids.org/scholarships for more and criteria.

June is Men’s Mental Health Month 💙
Too often, men are told to “be strong,” stay silent, or carry life’s challenges on their own. But here’s the truth: real strength is asking for helpand knowing you don’t have to face things alone.
At CONCERN, we see every day how mental health support can change lives. Through counseling men and families are finding hope, stability, and a path forward.
This month, let’s:
✔️ Check in on the men in our lives
✔️ Speak openly about mental health
✔️ Remind each other that support is available and it works
If you or someone you care about needs help, CONCERN is here. And if you’re able, your support helps us continue providing life-changing services to those who need them most.
You are not alone. 💙

The Highmark Walk is two days away and we would love for you to join our team. We will be walking a 5 K (with a 1 mile option) to raise money for CONCERN's behavioral health clients. When we raise funds to support our clients, we are able to assist them with rent, transportation, utilities, groceries, and more, as they focus on their treatment and healing. Will you join us?

We would love to hear stories from our previous or current foster parents. Why did you become a foster parent? What was it like? What would you say to someone who is interested in becoming a foster parent?
