The final chapter of the year is here, a time for reflection, celebration, and wrapping up more than just gifts. Whether this month finds you slowing down or gearing up, remember to savor the little joys: warm drinks, laughter with friends, and the peace that comes from knowing you made it through another year. 💫

We know this is a stressful time for many in our community. With the government shutdown and loss of SNAP benefits, more neighbors than ever are turning to us for help.

All Faiths Food Bank remains open and committed to serving everyone in need. To help keep food distributions running smoothly, please arrive no more than 30 minutes early.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we work together to keep food accessible for all.

About the S.H.A.R.E. Spot

The Self-Help and Recovery Exchange (S.H.A.R.E.) Spot is a drop-in center for people with severe, persistent mental illness. This peer-run, evidence-based program focuses on socialization, advocacy, and self-help for each member on a personal journey to recovery. Peer specialists run a variety of activities including self-help groups, education groups, arts and crafts, self-expression activities, and featured guest speakers. Peer specialists also provide emotional support to all members. S.H.A.R.E. Spot empowers members while instilling hope for a brighter future.

Studies of drop-in centers have found that members who attend have a decrease in su***de rate, substance abuse, and Crisis Unit admissions. Members also show an increase in social contacts, quality of life, problem solving abilities, and the ability to carry out the activities of daily living.

Through peer support, members gain self-esteem, learn to advocate for themselves, and become empowered to strive for recovery. The S.H.A.R.E. Spot is a powerful demonstration that people with mental illness can and do lead normal, productive lives.

S.H.A.R.E. Spot is a free, voluntary program open to members every Monday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. – 2:30 p.m.
