To better serve YOU and our community, we're splitting our social media into three dedicated pages!

Why the change?
As our programs grow, so do the needs of the people we serve — and we want to make sure the right people get the right information at the right time.

Here’s what’s new:

➡This page will now focus on our amazing Friends of Vida community, keeping you updated on:
-Upcoming Events
-Giving Opportunities
-Ways to Get Involved
-Impact Stories and More!
If you give, pray, volunteer, or want to learn how you can support our ministry — stay here!

➡BUT we know some of you are also looking for help, resources, or updates on services. That’s why we’ve created:
- For updates on hours, locations, and information on our medical services
- For providing information on parenting education, community resources, client events, and more

Why follow all three?
Because even if you’re primarily a donor, staying connected to ALL parts of our mission helps you:
-See the full picture of how your support is making a difference
-Share resources with someone in need — you might know someone who needs our help
-Celebrate real impact — it’s happening every day in our clinic and support programs, and we want you to see it firsthand!
❤We don’t want you to miss a thing.
