✨What does FLYY do? ✨
One of the specialized services we’re proud to offer is the Wings Program for First-Episode Psychosis — a partnership between FLYY and Chrysalis that supports youth and young adults experiencing early symptoms of psychosis. 🕊️

Think of Wings as a coordinated team approach designed to help young people take control of their mental health journey. Through a network of community-based services, participants receive compassionate, individualized support that promotes recovery, independence, and hope. As a state funded service, the Wings program provides support at no cost to participants.. 🌿💛

If you or someone you know is struggling with new or confusing changes in perception, thoughts, or behavior, Wings can help. Visit the Wings website at https://wingscsc.org/ to learn more about the signs of psychosis, what support looks like, and how to get started.

Fall is a time of great transition, in nature and within ourselves. What do you find yourself shedding and letting go if this season?

Thank you for making FLYY’s Drag Bingo a sold-out success! 💙✨

What an incredible night! We sold out, exceeded our fundraising goal twice, and filled Delta Beer Lab with so much joy and community spirit.

Huge thanks to Bianca Lynn Breeze, the amazing staff at Delta, our FLYY team, our prize contributors, and everyone who donated, played, cheered, and brought food pantry items.

This community is pure magic. ✨

We don’t talk about it like this a lot, but healing often is really challenging and doesn’t feel good during the process. When processing difficult emotions and situations/circumstances, it’s pretty common to feel overwhelmed by emotion, hopeless at times, feeling doubt about the therapeutic process or even self doubt, and even many of the following feelings (in the image accompanying this post) can arise as part of the process.

✨ Meet the Team Monday: Kitty Hall, MSW (she/her/hers) ✨
Say hello to Kitty Hall, one of FLYY’s Parent Support Specialists!

Kitty grew up in rural Wisconsin and has called Madison home for many years. Supporting at-risk children, youth, and families has always been her passion. After earning her Bachelor of Social Welfare at UW–Madison, she later returned to complete her Master of Social Work after becoming a mom. 🌟

Her background includes:
👉 Working with children in residential foster care
👉 Internships at Big Brothers Big Sisters Dane County and The Road Home
👉 Supporting families through Reach Dane Early Head Start and the Northside Early Childhood Zone

Much of Kitty’s work has focused on serving low-income families in Dane County, always through a trauma-informed, strength-based approach. She believes positive change happens through relationships—and brings authenticity, compassion, and even playfulness into the services she provides.

We’re so grateful to have Kitty on our team! 💪

🌟 Meet the Team Monday! 🌟
Say hello to Lindsey Bucki, M.S., Ed.S (she/her/hers) — one of FLYY’s amazing Service Facilitators and Individual Skill Developers.

Lindsey holds a graduate degree in School Psychology from UW–La Crosse and worked for several years as a school psychologist in Madison high schools. She brings that deep experience into her work at FLYY, supporting young people and families as they build confidence, navigate systems, and connect with their own strengths.

Lindsey also works with our WINGS program, which provides support to individuals and families experiencing first-episode psychosis and other mood disorders. She leads with compassion and a genuine belief in each person’s wisdom, resilience, and ability to thrive.

In her sessions, Lindsey integrates art, music, humor, play, movement, and somatic awareness — creating safe, authentic spaces for growth.

🌿 Outside of work, Lindsey enjoys being outdoors, snowboarding, playing sports, creating art, and spending time with her friends, family, and her dog, Earl.

We’re so grateful for Lindsey’s creativity, compassion, and dedication to building hope and community with the youth and families she supports! 💛

Every single day can bring something different. This means we need a variety of skills if we want to be able to get through everything!

🌟 Meet the Team Monday! 🌟
This week we’re excited to highlight Messina Duggan, APSW (they/them/theirs) — one of FLYY’s dedicated Service Facilitators, Individual Skill Developers, and Therapists.

Messina is a compassionate mental health professional who creates spaces where clients feel truly seen, heard, and empowered to guide their own healing. Every session is thoughtfully tailored to each person’s needs, experiences, and goals.

They are especially passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals and those navigating anxiety, depression, and trauma. Messina’s work is grounded in authenticity, empowerment, and holistic care, with a focus on building meaningful connections and developing skills that strengthen emotional well-being both in session and beyond.

💛 We’re grateful for Messina’s dedication to walking alongside young people on their path to healing and growth.
