Holiday Gatherings & Family Conflict 🎄🕊️

Not every family issue gets solved over the holidays—and that’s okay. If a calm conversation isn’t possible, don’t force it. Protect your peace.

This season, show up with love, set your boundaries, and give yourself the gift of peace. 💛✨ For more on navigating family conflict, please utilize your online resource: https://bit.ly/3XzUhEg
If the holidays and family gatherings stress you out more than usual, and you need help, please call 402-745-3950 and ask to schedule with one of our behavioral therapists.

We’re feeling the holiday spirit thanks to an amazing story! Last week, the WCHS Angel Tree got a heartwarming boost from Little Priest Tribal College's (LPTC) Student Senate.

After raising $230 from LPTC faculty and staff, these students hosted a delicious bake sale at the 2025 Winnebago Winter Gathering. The bake sale earned $518, an amount that was matched by LPTC President Dr. Manoj Patil $518. All these efforts combined to equal an impressive total of $1,248 in gifts, a story of generosity that will allow over 50 children in our community to have an extra special Christmas.

Just a friendly reminder: today is the deadline to return Angel Tree gifts at our Dental Clinic window. A huge thank you to LPTC and everyone who took part in "wōgiža wagigi"—Ho-chunk for "making spirits bright"—and helped spread so much joy this year!

Kindness is Powerful 💛

Kindness isn’t just a nice idea—it’s a proven boost for your mental health. Even small acts can help ease anxiety, lower stress, and lift your mood. And the best part? Kindness is contagious. Seeing someone else be kind can inspire you to do the same.
