FOWARD TOGETHER: Big Lessons from the Small and Mighty
The Harris County Domestic Violence Coordinating Council invited us, along with the other 13 participating agencies, to celebrate the Early Childhood Resiliency Fund. This grant allowed us to expand our neurofeedback program, strengthen resilience in children, and provide families impacted by domestic violence with the tools and support they need to heal together.
Thank you, HCDVCC, for believing in our mission and partnering with us to create a lasting impact in our community!
