📚 A new school year should be a time of excitement, growth, and possibility for every child!

But for families experiencing homelessness, the cost of school supplies, clothing, shoes, and extracurricular opportunities can add an extra layer of stress during an already challenging time. At the Caritas Family Center, children and families receive the support they need to move toward stability while ensuring kids can focus on learning, making friends, and simply being children.

Every night, 80 to 100 children stay at the Family Center. This back-to-school season, your gift can help provide essential school supplies, educational support, and opportunities that help children feel prepared, confident, and excited for the year ahead.

🎒 Help make back-to-school feel exciting again. Donate today and give a child the strong start they deserve: https://give.ccnwc.org/campaign/824788/donate

CCNWC Employee Spotlight!🌟

Geovanni Mora, Program Manager of Housing Stabilization at The Palms, leads his team with unwavering dedication and a commitment to providing exceptional services to clients. Each day presents a unique set of priorities, as no two days are ever the same. Geovanni and his team frequently find themselves pivoting to respond to emergencies, making adaptability and the ability to reprioritize crucial components of his role.

“What drew me to this leadership position was the opportunity to make meaningful changes that improve our programs. Having worked directly with clients, I've seen firsthand what has and hasn't been effective. That experience has shaped my approach to leadership, and I focus on implementing strategies that better support both our clients and our staff.”

Geovanni hopes that, in the future, there will be greater awareness and understanding of mental health and addiction, as people often do not realize how complex these challenges can be.

“People often assume that someone can simply decide to change overnight, without recognizing the complexity of these challenges. I find that providing clear explanations and real-life scenarios helps people better understand what individuals experiencing mental health conditions or substance use disorders are going through.”
