Mission Statement
At Connection is the Cure our goal is to connect people to people and people to resources.
Research shows that promoting connectedness—between people and within communities— creates a sense of belonging, which can be protective against suicide and addiction. It is also crucial to those struggling with mental health challenges. We believe everyone has the ability to connect. As they connect with themselves, with their community and with their higher power, they will have the tools and the resources to help themselves as well as those around them.
As we reach out to those that are struggling, those that desperately need mental wellness tools, and those that need motivation to live another day, we create connections. Connections that can Cure. Which is why we continue to provide workshops, trainings, service projects, firesides, etc. These activities offer hope, support, and resources to those whose lives have been touched by suicide, addiction, and mental health as well as their families.
