Mission: Connections is a safe place for families and kids who are facing challenges and need support. We provide a shelter for kids who have run away, are homeless, or waiting for a foster home to become available. We also have a home for teens and young adults who are preparing to age out of the foster care system. Anyone in the community can access our affordable, outpatient counseling for kids, families, and adults. In fact, our counselors will go to the client – meeting them where it is most convenient. We also work closely with our local school districts, hosting fun workshops that encourage students to think positive and make healthy choices.
