💜 Gratitude starts here. 💜

Today marks the first of many thank-you posts to the incredible champions who made this year’s How About Dinner and a Movie? truly unforgettable.

Because of your generosity, this year’s event raised more support than any other in its 29-year history. Every dollar will go directly toward helping our members on their journey to recovery.

Your support means:
🏠 Someone moves from the streets into safe housing
💪 Someone battling addiction finds support to recover
📚 Someone gains the skills to thrive
💼 Someone finds and keeps meaningful employment

That’s real impact, that goes deeper than any social post can fully encompass, and it wouldn’t be possible without you. Thank you for standing with Park Center and the people we serve. 💜

🏛️ Advocating for Mental Health at the Capitol

Park Center was honored to join agencies from across the state at Tennessee Association of Mental Health Organizations - TAMHO's Hill Day at the Tennessee Capitol, advocating for the needs of our neighbors living with mental illness.

Thank you to all the leaders who took time to listen and engage in these important conversations. We’re especially grateful to Senator Heidi Campbell and Rep. Bob Freeman for meeting with us to learn more about not only the TAMHO Hill day legislation but also Park Center’s work and the issues impacting our members.

Together, we’re working toward stronger support and brighter futures for people across Tennessee. 💜

“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” — Helen Keller

Thank you to everyone who joined Park Center’s first Community Partner Meeting of the year last month and a special thanks to United Way of Greater Nashville for hosting us.

We heard inspiring updates from our colleagues at Meharry Medical College , and Park Center’s own DeShaun Reed shared exciting news about our first opioid recovery house opening soon in East Nashville.

Partnerships like these strengthen the network of support across our community and we’re excited to keep the conversation going.

Black History Month reminds us that every story matters and every life deserves dignity, opportunity, and support.

Since it's official establishment, Black History Month has celebrated the rich contributions of Black Americans to our shared history and culture while calling attention to the ongoing work needed for true access for all.

At Park Center, we honor this month by reaffirming our commitment to support members of our community, regardless of background, through housing, mental health care, employment services, and pathways to independence.

This month and every month, we celebrate resilience, leadership, and the power of community to uplift one another. ❤️💛💚
