Thank you to all of our panelists for serving on our October alliance meeting panel! 💜

Domestic violence comes in many different forms, and it's important to recognize the signs in each population! A huge shoutout to these organizations and everything they do for our community: Fort Smith Police Department, Jessi's House, Fort Smith Crisis Intervention Center, and Fort Smith Public Schools! Thank you so much! ✨

Know the signs, know the support.

Last week, we had the privilege of attending the 4th annual ACE/Trauma Symposium for Stakeholders! Promoting trauma informed law and legislation is incredibly impactful in our community! Arkansas has the highest rates of adverse childhood experiences in the US— let's work together to get those numbers down! 💜

Thank you Center for Psychiatric Trauma & Mental Health - CPTMH for hosting such an impactful event.

We are grateful for Harbor House, Inc. partnership!

We are so excited to share this News 5 interview featuring Harbor House Inc CEO Carl Norris!

https://www.5newsonline.com/video/news/community/community-spotlight/harbor-house-inc-in-fort-smith-is-expanding-its-services/527-4343ca6d-f91e-44c3-8e3b-a7b18f9cafcd

Carl shares some exciting things happening across Harbor House, from new transitional housing and outdoor classrooms to expanded addiction treatment services and resources for the communities we serve.

Harbor House is expanding access to care through telehealth therapy for individuals in rural areas, growing outpatient and virtual therapy services, securing new grants and educational resources, and building new men’s and women’s transitional homes where individuals can have a safe, supportive place to continue their recovery journey.

This growth means more opportunities for people and families to access treatment, counseling, recovery support, and the resources they need to move forward.

Watch Carl’s News 5 interview to learn more.

Day one down, one more to go!

Restore Hope Training Academy Day was an absolute success! Our Family Advocates do so much behind the stage, and it was wonderful to see them get the recognition that they deserve.

A huge shoutout to Heather Dean Webb, Patricia Lawley-McMullin, and Sherillitta McKinney for serving over ✨ONE HUNDRED✨ participants!! An even bigger shoutout for Randelle Pickens, Courtnee Harlan, and Erica Valle for over ✨TWO HUNDRED✨ participants served! Our OG hope dealers have done so much for the community; here's to many more years of helping families and individuals in the Sebastian County area! 😍

Remember, you can't poor out of an empty cup. Take care of yourselves! ❤️
