National Mentorship Month
January brought us National Mentorship Month – an opportunity to recognize all who selflessly share a gift of their time and compassion with a child enrolled in our Kinship Program. Through Kinship, LCRC establishes quality relationships between caring adult mentors and children in our community. Through the mentoring relationships, stability and support are founded and lasting friendships are formed.

A Story of Resilience and Rebuilding
The following letter was written by a woman who resided in our shelter, Mary’s Place, this year. It is her story, in her own words.
I was an educator with a Master’s Degree and a very successful career. I raised two wonderful children. Everyone in my family thought I was happy. However, I was a domestic violence victim and I hid the secret, my unhappiness, and the abuse from everyone.
