I would like to send a big THANK YOU to our families that have been patient with us in our unexpected closure from our old clinic due to a flood…and waiting for the new building to be finished. The flexibility and acceptance to these sudden changes has been amazing. We also owe a big appreciation post to the many community members and businesses that have helped us with temporary locations to continue serving our clients the best way we can. City of Gadsden City of Southside, Alabama Gadsden City Schools Etowah County Schools First United Methodist Church of Gadsden Jason Wilson Brown Lumber & Building Supply Dana Snyder, Michael Greer /Kevin Sanford and more that I am sure I have forgotten. Lastly, the staff of Coosa Behavioral Services has been PHENOMENAL. They have poured time tears and sweat til we couldn’t sweat anymore. I am so grateful for my team.

We’re moving toward the finish line for the new building and KNOW you are going to love it!!

LOOKOUT FOR OUR GRAND OPENING VERY SOON, INCLUDING GIVEAWAYS FOR LOCAL SOUTHSIDE BUSINESSES! 🩷🩵🤍

We encourage you all to attend the Art Auction benefiting Family Success Center on Friday August 1, 2025.

Personal stories depicted through beautiful artwork. Each piece shows the impact Family Success Center has had to in their journey. This is a great opportunity to see the resources we have right here in our community.

🎨✨ Art with a Story – Join Us August 1st! ✨🎨

Every painting at the Stories from Family Success: A Live and Silent Art Auction tells a powerful, true story — including these two featured works:

🖼️ “Pulled from the Shadows” – A raw image of one hand lifting another from darkness, symbolizing the steady, unseen support that helps families rise again.

🖼️ “The Light Found Me” – A radiant tribute to rediscovered hope, inspired by someone who needed help but wasn't sure how to ask.

These aren’t just paintings — they’re lived experiences, transformed into art by those whose lives were changed through the Family Success Center.

📅 August 1, 2025
📍 Pitman Theatre | Downtown Gadsden
🕕 6:00 PM | Free First Friday Entry | Live Music | Wine & Appetizers for Sponsors & Pre-Sale Ticket Holders

💙 All proceeds directly support local families through counseling, child abuse prevention, supervised visitation, and more.

Come for the art. Stay for the impact.

✨ Inclusion isn’t a vibe ✨

Inclusion isn’t vibes. Full stop.

It’s not a feeling in the room. It’s not “being nice.” It’s not a placement, a program, a curriculum, or a polite smile. And it’s certainly not checking a box or making someone feel happy to be invited.

Because inclusion isn’t just about being invited to the party. Let’s also full stop here.

It’s about changing the party so everyone can dance, in their own way, at their own pace, without needing to ask for permission.

Yes, being kind and welcoming is a great start.
But we can do so much better.

Inclusion is not proximity. It’s not compliance. It’s not tolerance. It’s not doing it because everyone else is doing it, you were told or mandated to do so, or because you heard it’s what’s right.

Inclusion is access. It’s purpose. It’s design.

It’s planning ahead because you know all types of learners are coming. It’s making space without needing a reason to do so.

It’s also knowing that disability doesn’t discriminate - so when we advocate, adjust, and make things more accessible, everyone benefits… not just one group of students.

Everyone can participate.
Everyone is part of the community.
Everyone is included. On purpose.

Inclusion isn’t vibes.
It’s a mindset. It’s a shared responsibility.
And it’s long past time we treated it like both.
