November 2016 Newsletter

Welcome to Our Newest Partner!

Great news…after our months’ long nonprofit selection process, we’ve finally chosen our 2018 partner – Triangle Family Services (TFS)! Starting in the summer of 2017 after our spring concert, we’ll begin to work with TFS on capacity building, awareness and fundraising.Triangle Family Services utilizes proven interventions to deliver compassionate client centered services that support a safe, secure and stable community. Together, the organizations will focus on strengthening the community by providing services which strengthen families.Our goal of more than $1 million will be used for initiatives to close the mental health services and funding gap in our community, address family safety by expanding the TFS re-entry program for women, and improve their capacity to manage a community-wide coordinated assessment network related to housing.View our release on the partnership selection, or find out more about Triangle Family Services.
