Courageous Healing is launching a mobile crisis unit to provide community-based crisis response, thanks to a million-dollar grant from the Mobile Crisis Accelerator Program.
“Our ultimate measure of success is whether our population grows. We want Wabash County to be a place where everyone feels they belong.”
“I saw so many people in my community struggling to find jobs with good pay and benefits. I wanted to do something about it. I wanted to help them build their dreams.”
"My experience thus far has been [that] people generally have a pretty open mind towards art, especially in the Midwest. I find people there are really kind of welcoming and really into community engagement-style projects."
“We start with their personal stories, connect them to disability rights, and then build leadership and advocacy skills. By the end, we’re preparing them to serve on boards, councils, and commissions, or even run campaigns.”
“The main thing, in my opinion, would be one single voice that has one mission — that is to concentrate and make sure that we’re continuing to develop, protect and advocate for our downtown.”
“We’ve been getting money here and there, but this is serious money that shows other foundations and the community what we’re capable of. Our hope is that this is just the start, and that we’ll continue building the relationships and systems we need to keep serving Latino youth and their families, wherever they are.”
“Choice of food is such a huge part of dignity for people. That’s why efforts like HEAL Markets and Double Up matter so much. They enable families to choose the vegetables and produce they actually want and will use, creating a real connection between farmers and communities.”
“Our community is showing up for us, and it's really powerful because, for 44 years, the work we've been doing has been in service to the community.”
“We’re not here to replace what came before us, but to build something new that respects the past while creating a fresh tradition for future generations."
