Light. Hope. Presence.

As the candles of Hanukkah are lit, we reflect on the power of light in moments of darkness, the strength of hope, and the importance of simply being present for one another.

From all of us at TIP National, we wish our community a meaningful Hanukkah filled with comfort, resilience, and peace.

“When Christmas Finds You Anyway”
(A poem for anyone going through something this year)

Some years,
Christmas doesn’t look the way you pictured.
The house is quieter,
the table feels smaller,
and life has written chapters
you never meant to read.

But somehow…
Christmas finds you anyway.

It slips in through the soft glow of the tree,
through the smell of something warm in the oven,
through a memory that catches you off guard
and makes your eyes fill with tears.

It finds you in the people who stayed,
in the strength you didn’t know you had,
in the way your heart keeps learning
how to break
and still stay open.

It finds you in the simple things—
a mug in your hands,
a blanket over your knees,
a song you haven’t heard in years
that somehow knows your whole story.

Because Christmas isn’t always loud
or glittery
or full.

Sometimes it’s gentle.
Sometimes it’s healing.
Sometimes it’s a light
that shows up right when you needed reminding
that you’re not walking this season alone.

So if this year looks different…
If you’re grieving,
or rebuilding,
or learning how to begin again—
I hope Christmas finds you anyway.

And I hope it brings peace
to the places that still hurt,
and warmth
to the places that feel cold.

🚔❄️ INVESTIGATION UPDATE ❄️🚔

Officer Elfie has bravely volunteered for the dangerous undercover assignment despite the risks of cold cheeks, stuck mittens, and suspicious squirrels.

Good news: his frosty disguise worked! Officer Elfie has a strong lead, but he can’t reveal details just yet!

We’ll keep you posted once Officer Elfie thaws out enough to write his report! ☃️

Just like our sister program in Trauma Intervention Program of Northern Nevada we want to share this post . 🙏❤️

December can be beautiful… and brutal at the same time. 💔💙

For many, this season isn’t filled only with lights and laughter — it’s filled with absence, memories, and an ache that grows louder with every song, gathering, and empty chair.

If someone seems quieter, slower, or distant this month, be gentle.
Grief doesn’t take a holiday — it often gets heavier in December.

A little patience.
A little kindness.
A little understanding.

It can go a long way for a hurting heart. 💙
