Impact
In 2019, we had over 80 visitors seeking a variety of services including housing services, dental hygiene, and clothing. Over 30% of those in attendance were veterans and a variety of individuals experiencing homelessness or low income. Thank you to everyone who made this year's Community Connections Day and Veteran's Stand Down a success!
