Dedicated to Serving All in NeedAt Jefferson Center for Mental Health, we helpbring hope for a brighter future to thousandsof community members who struggle withmental health disorders… individuals whosedaily lives have been disrupted and whosemental health problems are leading todifficulties at work or school, hospitalization,homelessness, or even involvement with thecriminal justice system.

Although we know that mental healthdisorders are more common than cancer,diabetes and heart disease, we also knowthat people with mental health issues canrecover and go on to lead meaningful,hopeful lives.

The Power of HopeThe first, most important step in recoveryand resiliency is to foster the belief insomething called hope. Once thathappens, anything is possible;anything can happen and oftendoes. The power of hope! Hope canhelp propel someone into a newmindset, healthy new habits, even abrand new chapter of life. Hope offerssomething special to everyone –helping to overcoming barriers, create anew future and even recover from severebehavioral health issues.

We continue to focus on hope at Jefferson Center because webelieve in the power of hope and all the possibilities it holdsfor everyone.

More than 180 works of art were submitted this year from 55artists of all ages. Congratulations to all of the artists whosubmitted work for consideration for this year’s calendar!

Jefferson Center’s services and programs engage, help, and inspire people on the road to resiliency and recovery.

Thank You!We appreciate all of the members in our community who continually support the important work that we

do at Jefferson Center and who help carry the message that mental health services are a vital part of the

health of our communities. Without the support of our community, many of the programs and services

we provide would not be available to the people who really need them. Thank you to the many

individuals, family members and businesses for helping Jefferson Center make a difference by reaching

out to record numbers of people and being on the cutting edge of mental health treatment innovation.

Children’sWisdom

If you want a kitten,start out asking for

a horse

Sometimes you haveto take the test

before you’vefinished studying

You can’t hide a piece ofbroccoli in a glass of milk

Ask for sprinkles

Love is what makes yousmile when you’re tired

Sometimes youneed to take a nap

and get over it
