Our Impact
At Strengthening Connections Community Services, impact is measured by the connections we strengthen, the stability we support, and the crises we help prevent before they happen.
Our work centers early intervention, caregiver support, and community-based prevention—creating safer, healthier outcomes for children, families, and communities.

Our Prevention Focus
We prioritize prevention by strengthening protective factors that reduce risk for:
-
Behavioral health crises
-
Child welfare involvement
-
Substance use escalation
-
Family instability and isolation
By supporting emotional regulation, connection, and caregiver capacity early, we help families build resilience before challenges require crisis response.

How We Create Impact
Our impact is driven through:
-
Trauma-informed group programming for adults, caregivers, and youth
-
Low-barrier access to support without diagnosis or referral
-
Community-based delivery in trusted spaces and virtual formats
-
Lived-experience leadership that builds trust and engagement
-
Practical navigation support, including referrals and access coordination
This approach allows us to meet families where they are while creating pathways to deeper support when needed.

Funded & Community-Supported
