💡 Mental Health Awareness Month Reminder

Small changes can have a big impact on mental health. If taking the next step seems overwhelming, try this: Take a minute, focus on just one change, and practice using “I feel” statements. Something as simple as talking openly about feelings can go further than anyone might think.

Mental Health Awareness Month is a great reminder to look at our own needs – physical, mental, and spiritual – and determine where we can improve. Recognize the power in small steps! Read the full blog here: https://www.kindred-place.org/blog/healthy-connections-healthy-communities.

Say hello to our 2023-2024 Board of Directors! We're grateful to have their unique perspectives and expertise on board as we work together to ensure all families have access to the help and support they want and need.

Parent-Child Interaction Therapy, or PCIT, is an evidence-based treatment approach for parents of young children (ages 2-7) who exhibit challenging behaviors. PCIT is conducted through sessions during which a parent and child are observed interacting with each other. The therapist provides in-the-moment coaching for the parent, with progress measured weekly.
