2-1-1 Provides 24/7 Confidential Support & Community Resource Data
The other day, a woman stopped by our office. She asked to speak with one of our referral specialists, not to get help but to thank her.

Highlands Circle: Emerging Leaders Giving Back
A few months ago I was talking with someone about Highlands Circle and she asked me, “So what is Highlands Circle? What’s in it for someone to join?” I’ll be honest: I didn’t have an answer. Which is interesting, because I usually don’t find myself at a loss for words.
