Last night, Jen Meyer, our Protective Services Coordinator, graciously accepted a generous donation from the Weathershield LITE Foundation.

This contribution will directly support the unmet needs of individuals served through our Crisis Intervention Services and Adult/Elder Protective Services programs.

We are deeply grateful for the incredible people and organizations who come together to strengthen our community. Their kindness and commitment make this an amazing place to live, work, and thrive.

We were honored to partner with The Salvation Army of Taylor County to help bring Thanksgiving meal kits to families in our community. Many thanks to the Salvation Army and to the family of Tom Volkmann Jr. for their generosity in making this possible. We are always grateful for opportunities to support our neighbors, and we hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. 🧡

Today, the Taylor County Human Services staff proudly wears red to honor our nation’s veterans and to thank all who have served. We also extend our gratitude to those currently serving, those deployed away from home, and the families who support them. Happy Veterans Day to all! 🇺🇸❤️

Today, September 8, is 988 Day. 988 Day is a day of action meant to bring awareness about the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline, a free service available 24/7 by phone, text, and chat.

Some days feel heavier than others. Whether it’s school, work, relationships, anxiety, or something you can’t quite explain, 988 is here for you. Text, call, or chat with a real person who listens without judgment. You don’t have to be in crisis to reach out. Call or text 988 or chat at 988lifeline.org.

988 also offers substance abuse support and resources. To learn more or to connect with a skilled counselor for judgment-free support, visit 988Wisconsin.org.
