Vision

We envision a community where all individuals and their families can successfully realize their potential and pursue their dreams where stigma and discrimination against those with mental health and alcohol and drug issues are remnants of the past. We also envision all students (elementary and secondary) going to school and receiving their instruction with full stomach and not being hungry throughout the school day.

Our Values

Our values represent who we are and who we strive to be!

Promoting Mental Wellness

Overall mental wellness is achieved in many different ways, such as:

Stress Reduction

When stress is high, it can have an affect on your body and lead to health problems. Finding ways to manage stress is critical to a healthy life.

Good Nutrition

Eating well helps you feel good and keeps your body energized with the right combination of nutrients.

Rest and sleep

Everyone needs adequate sleep to feel healthy and have the energy to take on each day. Make time before bed to relax, let go of stressors, and prepare your mind for sleep.

Regular Physical Activity

Even a daily walk promotes the release of chemicals in the brain that improve mood and increase energy.

Medication Management

Taking the incorrect type or amount of medication can negatively impact your health and impede your ability to get better. Working with a professional to properly manage your medication supports recovery.

Therapeutic Interventions

Behavioral therapies help people in drug addiction treatment modify their attitudes and behaviors related to drug use. As a result, patients are able to handle stressful situations and various triggers that might cause another relapse.
