Silence hides violence. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time to stand in solidarity with survivors and advocates. Wear purple to show your support. Learn the signs of abuse, share resources, and speak out against domestic violence. You can make a difference.

If you are experiencing abuse, remember that you are not alone, and it is not your fault. Resources are available to help you heal and find safety. We are here to help 💜

Our Employee of the Month for July is Richard White Jr.!

Richie is a dedicated counselor at Center for Positive Change. He is most known for his contagious smile, calming demeanor, and never-ending positive attitude. Richie is committed to providing a safe space for his clients to open up, process their hardships, and find solutions toward meeting their goals. Although he works with folks of all ages and all walks of life, his speciality is connecting with and advocating for young people navigating some of life’s most difficult challenges. What we specifically want to highlight is the way in which Richie has shown up, not only for his clients, but also for his colleagues here at CPC. He is a team player, even if it means occasionally stepping outside of his comfort zone, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have him on our team. We thank you for everything that you bring to the table, Richie!

On June 19, 1865 — more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation — the last enslaved Black Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally learned they were free. Juneteenth stands as a powerful reminder of hope, perseverance, and the ongoing fight for justice.
Freedom is not complete until all people are free from hate, discrimination, and oppression.
Today, as we reflect on the legacy of slavery, we also acknowledge how systemic inequities continue to affect Black communities, from racism and violence to barriers in health care, including mental health care.
For generations, stigma around mental health in the Black community has made it harder for individuals to seek support. Mistrust of health systems, cultural expectations of strength, and the weight of collective trauma have too often kept conversations about mental well-being in the shadows. At CPC, we stand committed to changing that narrative. Mental health is health, and seeking help is a courageous act of self-love.
As we face today’s challenges — from global conflict to rising hate — let Juneteenth inspire us to stand for equity, healing, and unity
Let’s honor this day not just with reflection, but with action: by listening, learning, supporting, and building spaces where everyone can thrive, mind and body.

June is Men’s Mental Health Month.

It’s time to talk about what no one talks about.

Men are wrongly taught from a young age that expressing emotion is “weak.”

It’s time to speak up.

🔹Men die by su***de at four times the rate of women.
🔹Men aged 40-49 have the highest su***de rates.
🔹Men report lower levels of life satisfaction than women.
🔹Men are less likely to seek medical help than women.

It’s not weak to speak. It’s necessary for survival.

Break the silence, seek support, and ask about the well-being of the men in your life.
