💙👖 This past April, our CORE Team partnered with local schools to host "Stitch in Strength," a Lunch & Learn activity in recognition of Denim Day.
Students decorated denim squares with messages of encouragement for their peers and survivors of assault and violence, creating meaningful conversations about healthy relationships, respect, and safety, especially as prom and graduation season approached.
The squares were then combined into a powerful patchwork display, now featured in school wellness rooms, counselor offices, and the Hart District Office as a lasting symbol of support, strength, and resilience. ✨

Out of an abundance of caution, Child & Family Center will remain closed tomorrow, due to the Centre Pointe fire. While great progress is being made on fire containment, we will assess the air quality and any potential damage in and around the campus.
Our 24-hour Domestic Violence Shelter and services still remain open and available. Call 661-259-HELP should you need support or assistance.
Thank you to all the firefighters and fire personnel working to keep lives and structures safe!
