Just a reminder that Daylight Saving Time ends Sunday, November 1st.

As we turn our clocks back, our daily routines may need a little adjusting, too.

A few small things can help make the transition easier:

📍Keep bedtime and wake-up routines as consistent as possible.

📍Get some natural daylight during the day.

📍Make time for movement and fresh air.

📍Give yourself and your family a little patience while adjusting.

Sometimes taking care of our well-being starts with the small things we do every day.

Wishing everyone a smooth transition to the season ahead! ⏰

Join CASA of Floyd County for its third annual Color Me CASA tomorrow!

5K & Family Fun Run on Saturday, October 31, from 8–11 a.m. at the New Albany Riverfront Amphitheater!

Hosted by Angie Fenton, this family-friendly event includes a timed 5K, a 1-mile fun run, games, prizes, and activities for all ages. The race begins at 9 a.m., and costumes are encouraged.

CASA volunteers play an important role in advocating for children involved in the court system because of abuse or neglect. Proceeds from this event help CASA recruit, train, and support the volunteers who stand up for these children and help ensure their voices are heard.

As a community partner, Clark & Floyd System of Care is proud to support organizations working to protect children and strengthen families. 💙

Our Exec Director Ann Carruthers recently attended a legislative update with Congresswoman Erin Houchin - an opportunity to hear about legislative priorities and engage in conversations that affect our region.

As both a nonprofit executive and a member of the New Albany-Floyd County School Board, Ann recognizes the importance of understanding how decisions at the legislative level connect with education, economic development, and the everyday challenges individuals and families face.

Being part of these conversations helps community leaders stay informed, ask important questions, and identify opportunities to strengthen partnerships and advocate for meaningful change.

Thank you to One Southern Indiana Chamber & Economic Development and Bryan Wickens for their leadership in advancing advocacy efforts and bringing community leaders together.

💙 What if the most meaningful impact is what never happens?

A child who gets support before reaching a breaking point. A family that finds help before a crisis deepens. A person who discovers a path forward when they need it most.

That’s the heart of prevention. It’s not always visible, and it doesn’t always make headlines. Sometimes, its greatest success is a harder moment avoided, a new direction found, or a future that looks a little brighter.

As we continue our Year of Prevention, you can help make that kind of impact possible.

Give $25 in 2026 to support helping people find the right support at the right time.

Through child abuse prevention, mental health support, substance use prevention and recovery resources and services that help individuals and families navigate difficult circumstances, we work to build a community where more people can find hope and a path forward.

The best time to make a difference is often before the need becomes a crisis.

🎀 Red Ribbon Week® | October 23–31

This year’s theme is “Make a Difference. Be a Hero. Stay Drug Free.™” — a reminder that each of us can play a role in helping young people make healthy choices.

Red Ribbon Week grew from the efforts of the National Family Partnership, founded in 1980 by concerned parents who believed families should take a leading role in drug prevention.

Today, prevention remains a shared responsibility. Families, schools, and communities can work together to educate young people, encourage healthy decisions, and help them build a future free from substance misuse.

📸 Want to get involved? The 2026 National Red Ribbon Photo Contest invites families to share photos of their home decorations and schools to showcase their Red Ribbon displays. Entries are open through November 2, with a chance to win an iPad and $1,000 for a K–12 school of their choice.

Prevention starts with the choices we make and the support we give our next generation. 🎀

🧡 Wear Orange for Unity Day! 🧡

October is National Bullying Prevention Month, and today, October 21, you can wear orange to show your support for kindness, acceptance, and standing together against bullying.

Bullying can have a lasting impact on mental health, affecting a person’s self-esteem, sense of belonging, and emotional well-being. Everyone deserves to feel safe, accepted, and supported—at school, at home, online, and in our community.

🧡 Here’s how you can make a difference:
• Wear orange to show your support
• Speak up when you see bullying
• Include others and choose kindness
• Check in on someone who may be struggling
• Remind children and youth that asking for help is a sign of strength

Let's prevent bullying and support the mental health and well-being of children, youth, and families in our community.
🧡

At Clark & Floyd System of Care, we believe that our past does not have to define our future, and everyone deserves the opportunity for a fresh start.

Our Executive Director, Ann Carruthers, attended the 2026 Indiana Workforce Summit, connecting with community partners and learning more about opportunities to help youth and adults overcome barriers, gain employment, and build a brighter future.

For individuals navigating reentry after incarceration, substance use disorders, or serious mental health challenges, access to employment and supportive services can make a meaningful difference. By strengthening partnerships and identifying gaps in services, we can help create pathways to stability, independence, and lasting change.

Thank you to Southern Indiana Works and Tony Waterson for this opportunity.

We are also grateful for our community corrections and probation officers, criminal justice partners, and all those working to help individuals move forward and succeed.💙

Our October 2nd System of Care Monthly Meeting brought community together to share resources, strengthen connections, and learn about services supporting individuals and families across Southern Indiana. 💙

We were happy to talk about “Connecting the Dots - what do we know and where do we go?” And also had a full discussion on where each agency sees the gaps in our community, highlighting resources available to support youth and families. We also enjoyed a special visit from a service dog! 🐾

These monthly meetings create opportunities for providers, organizations, and community members to learn from one another and work together to make accessing support easier for those who need it.

Want to get involved? Community members are welcome to join us every First Friday. Our next System of Care meeting is on Friday, November 6th!

Together, we can build stronger connections and help children, individuals and families find the support they need.

International Day for the Eradication of Poverty | October 17

Everyone deserves a safe place to call home.🏠

This year’s theme, “Safe Homes for All,” highlights the importance of safe, adequate housing as a basic human right. A stable home provides more than shelter. It can create a foundation for better mental health, family stability, personal safety and opportunities to thrive.

Poverty is complex, and addressing it takes more than meeting immediate needs. It means listening to people with lived experience, including their voices in decisions that affect their lives, and working together to ensure everyone has access to safe, affordable housing and the resources they need to build a brighter future.

Together, we can help build stronger communities where everyone has a safe place to call home. 💙

It’s okay to be disappointed. It’s okay to feel frustrated. But it’s not okay to stay there.

In Episode 6 of The Mindset Huddle, Andrew shares the 90-second rule: give yourself permission to feel what you’re feeling, then choose how you move forward.

A tough loss can become motivation. A big win can build confidence. The key is learning to use those emotions without letting them define what comes next.

Whether in sports or everyday life, how we respond matters.
