Inspiration Station: Struggle is an inevitable part of human existence. When you’re in the thick of it, it can be helpful to remind yourself to take things moment by moment and day by day. One day you will look back with pride on how far you’ve come.

It is easy to get swept into the hustle and bustle of the week ahead. Challenge for the Week: Take care to recenter in the current moment and enjoy the ride. Picture text: "If you're always racing to the next moment, what happens to the one you're in? Enjoy the Ride"

So grateful for our United Way of Northeast Georgia Volunteers from UGA MEDLIFE!!! They helped with mulching, cleaning out gutters, raking, and most of all helping us to make our space nice for those we serve!

With sincerest gratitude to our sponsors...you are truly making a difference in our community.

We are so grateful for the support of the TURNER FAMILY FOUNDATION of our Athens Justice Coalition of Care Program. Due to their support people in our community are getting a second chance at a happy, healthy, and productive life.
