Recap from the Charlotte Transition House!🏡 The past two months have been exciting as we welcomed our first kids and settled into our new space. August was all about creativity, and we embraced it by letting imaginations run wild while encouraging the kids to explore ways to incorporate life skills into their daily routines. Here’s a sneak peek at some of the activities we've been enjoying—our kids have truly brought their creative spirits to life! Stay tuned in the coming weeks to see what September has in store for us. 🌟 #CharlotteTransitionHouse #CreativityInAction #StayTuned

Two Years of 988: A Lifeline for Millions Two years ago, the National Suicide Prevention Line transitioned to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. In this short time, this easy-to-remember number has facilitated over 10 million contacts and saved countless lives. Yet, there’s still more to be done to enhance its effectiveness. We must advocate for Congress to make crucial improvements to 988 and crisis care: 🔹 Route 988 calls to the general location instead of the phone’s area code. 🔹 Expand access to crisis care and follow-up services across all communities. Learn more about these initiatives and how you can help by visiting our blog. #988NumberChange #SuicidePreventionMonth #AlexanderYouthNetwork #ChildrensMentalHealthMatters #MakeADifference

Our PRTF and Charlotte Day Treatment kids had the BEST time with Tri Pointe Homes last Friday! This amazing group of volunteers hosted an incredible field day for our kids and it was the perfect way to end the summer. From relay races and water balloon toss to face painting and bubble dance parties, they thought of everything! They even brought in a Kona Ice truck and had a special catered lunch. And check out that incredible inflatable obstacle course! Thank you so much to Tri Pointe Homes for spending the entire day with us! Our kids had a blast and we know it's a memory that they will keep with them forever 💚 #alexanderyouthnetwork #childrensmentalhealth
