What an incredible day! Thank you for hosting the 9th annual Canyon Rim Cares Day of Service! 🙌

This event connects our community with local nonprofits through meaningful service projects and valuable resources.

We’re so grateful for the incredible community support that made today possible. From generous supply donations to the many volunteers who rolled up their sleeves to assemble these kits. Thank you to everyone who contributed! 🌟

💙 A Tribute to Nikki Walker 💙
Our hearts are full of gratitude as we remember Nikki Walker—an extraordinary leader, advocate, and friend to so many in our community.

Nikki served on The Children’s Center Utah Board of Directors with a powerful commitment to equity, inclusion, and mental health. Her legacy is one of love, leadership, and lasting impact.

We are honored to have known and worked alongside Nikki. She changed lives—and inspired us all to do the same.

Today, we hosted our Annual Meeting of the Board of Directors, a moment to reflect, celebrate, and look ahead.

We’re proud of the many accomplishments achieved over the past year, thanks to the dedication, collaboration, and leadership of our board and team. These successes are a testament to our shared commitment to making a meaningful impact.

We also took time to honor and say farewell to two outstanding board members: Dave Baldridge and Paula Green Johnson. Their insight, passion, and service have left a lasting mark, and we are deeply grateful for all they’ve contributed.

A heartfelt thank you goes to Greg Summerhays for his exceptional leadership as Board Chair. Greg’s steady guidance and dedication have significantly helped move our mission forward.

As we look to the future, we’re thrilled to welcome Jenn Barlow as our incoming Board Chair. We’re excited for what’s ahead under her leadership.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support and strengthen our work. Here’s to another impactful year ahead!

🌟 On the Shoulders of Giants 🌟

We had the incredible opportunity to spend time with Dr. Alicia Lieberman, one of the visionary co-developers of Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP).

At The Children's Center Utah, we are honored to carry forward this inspiring legacy. As Utah’s CPP trainers, we proudly support the dissemination of this evidence-based model to mental health providers throughout our state.

Together, with gratitude for the giants who came before us, we are building a future of hope and healing for children and families. 💜
