Today, we commemorate Juneteenth, a day that marks the end of slavery in the United States and honors the resilience, strength, and contributions of Black Americans throughout history.

Juneteenth serves as a reminder that freedom, justice, and opportunity are values worth protecting and advancing for every child, family, and community.

As we continue our mission of providing hope, healing, and justice to children and families, we recognize the importance of learning from our history and working toward a future where every child feels safe, valued, and supported.

As we wrap up Family Advocacy Week, we have one last, but MOST CERTAINLY not least, advocate!🫵

Mandy is our Trauma Screening advocate. She joined our team around 7 months ago and we have already seen the incredible impact she has made!

One family noted Mandy's skills & how she navigated truly tough topics. "I appreciated Mandy and the staff. The environment was victim and family centered. I truly felt they were here to meet our family’s needs".☀️

Advocacy can't be bought. It can only be inspired💛

It is still Family Advocacy week, and we are so excited to spotlight another advocate!⭐️

Sherry has been with us for 3 years, and we are SO lucky to have her! Parents have talked about how knowledgeable Sherry is, especially when explaining dynamics of child sexual abuse and things to look out for.

When asked what was most appreciated at our center, a caretaker replied, "The time Ms. Sherry spent explaining the services they provide. Finally, feeling we have someone to turn to when we are overwhelmed, made us feel comfortable and at ease". 🥹

Join us tomorrow for another advocate highlight!

As we continue celebrating Family Advocacy week, we’re highlighting another one of our lovely advocates who do so much for our kiddos and families!☺️

Se'sha has been a family advocate for 4 years at our center. We are so grateful for her positivity and bright smile!

A caretaker once said " They were proactive. Explained everything, Se'sha made sure I understood and knew what to expect. Where I can reach out and helped me not feel helpless".🫂

Advocacy is courage dressed as compassion!
