Shout out to Zia Beltz & Alexandria King for winning the N’SYNC team building exercise!

Yesterday, Natasha Jones provided a training so the ABLE paraprofessionals will continue to stay *NSYNC with one another. This was a team building activity designed to help paraprofessionals practice staying in rhythm with one another during times of youth crisis. The staff must rely on each other, respond consistently and feed off of one another’s cues. 😊

Every day, an average of 17 veterans die by su***de. That’s more than 6,000 lives lost each year, and for the 22nd year in a row, that number remains above 6,000. Veterans face a 58% higher risk of su***de than those who haven’t served, and many never connect with the care they need.

In Indiana alone, 173 veterans died by su***de in 2022, with more than half having had no VA contact in the five years before their death.

At Hamilton Center, we are committed to supporting veterans through:

- Training all staff in military culture
- Offering specialized therapy and military-focused trainings for clinicians
- Providing free firearm locks and veteran-specific resources
- Training staff in QPR su***de prevention and promoting the 988 Crisis Lifeline

Real help. Real hope. Right now.

Call/text 988 or call 800-742-0787 if you or someone you know is in crisis.

We had an extraordinary group of visitors on campus today! The ladies from Cobblestone Crossings Health Campus visited, as part of their Legacy program. Providing residents opportunities to visit the community to make their wishes come true is a big part of the program. Gibault’s Keith Madley’s mom, Mary Ann Madley, talks daily about wanting to visit Gibault. Today, her wish came true. She toured the CRC (Chartrand Memorabilia Room) with several of her current residents at Cobblestone. 😊❤️
Prior to Mary Ann’s progression in Dementia symptoms, from 2017-2023, she knitted over 300 winter hats for the youth at Gibault.🧶🪢🧵🪡

Yesterday, Gibault’s Tre Stephens provided our annual tour with the IN Ag Leadership Program class. Special thanks goes out to Beth Archer for brining her class to Gibault’s campus, so they can learn more about how we are providing LIFE CHANGING OPPORTUNITUES for the children we serve. 😊

Gibault, Inc. and Holy Cross School are happy to announce we have received funding from the Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS) in the amount of $9,250.00. This is the seventh award through the IDHS Secured School Safety Grant (SSSG). The funding will be used towards the employment of a school resource officer for Holy Cross School, which is located on the grounds of our Terre Haute campus. The school resource officer provides an added measure of safety and stability during the school day. Thank you IDHS for continuing to invest in our children at Gibault.

Stephan and Andrea Ziemba toured our campus recently. Steve was a member of the Gibault, Inc. Board of Trustees from 1998-2011. They really enjoyed Gibault’s Memorabilia Room which depicts our history for more than 100 years! Lots of good memories were shared. Thank you for reaching out and spending time with us.
