🌱 Today is National Parent Appreciation Day 🌱

At RAFT, we pause to honor all who nurture, guide, and care — in every form that caregiving takes.

💚 Whether you're a biological parent, foster parent, grandparent, chosen family, single parent, co-parent, adoptive parent, guardian, or caregiver in any nontraditional or non-nuclear family — your role is deeply meaningful.

We also want to recognize:
✨ Neurodivergent parents
✨ LGBTQ+ parents
✨ Parents with disabilities
✨ Parents managing mental health challenges
✨ Those parenting through grief, trauma, or complex family dynamics

Parenting doesn't come with a manual, and there’s no “one right way.” It can be beautiful, exhausting, fulfilling, and overwhelming — sometimes all in the same day. You are seen. You are valued. You are not alone.

💬 If you’re navigating the journey of caregiving and could use support, we’re here to walk with you.

🎆 Happy Fourth of July from RAFT Counseling! 🇺🇸

Today, as we celebrate freedom, fireworks, and time with loved ones, we also honor emotional freedom—the courage to heal, to grow, and to be your authentic self.

Whether you're enjoying the day surrounded by family or taking some quiet time for yourself, remember that independence includes the power to set boundaries, speak your truth, and care for your mental well-being.

✨ Freedom looks different for everyone—and that's worth celebrating.

From all of us at RAFT, we’re wishing you a safe, joyful, and meaningful Independence Day. 💙❤️

A message from Danielle (LPCC), Therapist and Wellness Coordinator. A reminder of the importance of observing Pride Month and Juneteenth. 🌟

From Danielle: "These two observances remind us of the importance of intersectionality, the need for culturally responsive care, and our collective responsibility to challenge oppression in all its forms. Let us continue to listen, learn, advocate, and support not only our clients, but one another, in this journey." 🩷
