We are an organization that provides a nationally-unique social services---rapid response resolution for a myriad of crises. We need to raise our profile on social media in ways that others, in particular, an audience of prospective donors notice. Our challenge is not more clients--there is a tremendous, unmet demand for what we do. It is funding that is needed because we are trying to expand from being a local organization for 17 of our 20-year existence to becoming a national presence given a nationwide need for our services. Your assistance can be instrumental in opening that path for us and would be a legacy to be proud of.

Because we assist people through crises as our mission, we have been contacted for assistance both by people affected by COVID as well as those affected by the many natural disasters around the nation. If you wish to assist in our advocacy work, we are looking primarily for those with prior problem-solving and/or conflict resolution experience assisting others including attorneys, mediators, and others who might have this type of experience. However, we are putting in place a training module that will also prepare others who do not have such experience to do this work on behalf of others in need.
