With over 30 years of experience in the mental health field, Steven brings a depth of knowledge that truly strengthens our entire team. He leads with kindness and grace, creating an environment where everyone feels supported, valued, and encouraged to grow.

Spirit Week at CPC is in full swing and today is Decades Day…and we understood the assignment!

We didn’t just stop at the 80s or 90s — we took it all the way back to prehistoric times 🦖

From dinosaurs to a few questionable fashion choices through the decades, it’s safe to say creativity is alive and well around here!

Once upon a time, they were just kids with big imaginations, messy hair, scraped knees, and dreams about who they might become someday.

Like most kids, they probably didn’t know exactly where life would take them. They didn’t know the paths they would walk with others, the stories they would hear, or the strength they would help people discover.

But somewhere along the way, those dreams grew into something powerful: a calling to help others heal, grow, and find hope.

Today, those kids are the social workers of Center for Positive Change.

Every day they sit with people during some of life’s hardest moments, offer compassion when it’s needed most, and help individuals and families take steps toward healthier, brighter futures. They are advocates, listeners, guides, and quiet agents of change in our community.

In honor of Social Worker’s Day, we’re sharing a look back at where their stories began. These childhood photos remind us that every person who changes lives today was once a kid simply dreaming about who they might become.

And what an incredible impact those dreams have grown into. Please join us in thanking our Social Workers today ❤️

✨Employee Spotlight✨

We are proud to recognize our February Employee of the Month, Neil Pittman, who has served as an Abuse Intervention Group Facilitator with our agency for the past 13 years.

For over a decade, he has shown unwavering reliability and integrity in one of the most challenging areas of our work. Week after week, he facilitates groups with professionalism, fairness, and a steady commitment to accountability and change. His presence is consistent, his standards are clear, and his dedication to doing the work the right way has helped strengthen both our program and our community.

Domestic violence intervention work requires patience, emotional resilience, and strong character. He brings those qualities to every group he leads. While his work often happens quietly and without recognition, its impact is large and lasting.

Thirteen years of showing up.
Thirteen years of guiding hard conversations.
Thirteen years of fostering positive change.

Please join us in congratulating him on this well-deserved recognition. Thank you, Neil!

100 years of Black History Month. A century of recognition for a history that has always shaped the world and this country.

This month is not only about remembering what came before. It’s about paying attention to what is happening right now, and deciding what kind of future is being built in front of us.

What we choose to recognize, protect, and stand for in this moment becomes the history someone else will learn from tomorrow.

Join us in celebrating today and every day! ❤️💛💚
