Heartland Center For Behavioral Change

12/20/2025

Many of the people we serve come to us believing they are completely alone — without support, resources, or access to care. Sometimes what changes everything is knowing that someone sees them and believes they matter. This is why kindness, connection, and hope are at the heart of our work.

As we close out the year, we are working toward our $10,000 end-of-year goal to continue offering support, stability, and access to care for those who have nowhere else to turn.

Every person who walks through our doors carries a story. This one is a reminder of the strength, courage, and resilience people bring with them when they choose healing.

Your generosity helps create a safe, welcoming place where individuals battling addiction and mental health challenges can rest, recover, and rebuild their lives.

Give a night. Change a life.

Give Them a Home for the Holidays!

When someone comes to Heartland’s Community Residential Unit (CRU), they are often exhausted, scared, and battling addiction to drugs or alcohol as well as untreated mental illness. A CRU bed night gives them so much more than a place to sleep. It provides:

• Immediate access to help for addiction and mental health support
• Low barrier entry - there is no cost to someone who doesn't have the resources, no insurance required, and as few barriers as possible to receive services
• Compassionate, well trained staff who meet them with dignity, not judgment
• A safe place to rest and heal
• Warm, nourishing meals
• Showers and clean clothing
• A chance to begin again with hope instead of fear

One night of care is $55.
Give a night, give a week, give what you can – your gift provides a safe place to heal.

Thanksgiving Fact: Did you know Benjamin Franklin once suggested the turkey should be America’s national bird instead of the bald eagle?

Happy Thanksgiving!
