It may be getting cooler, but members of our Maine Families program are getting ready for spring to help raise awareness for mental health. Staff planted a Hope Garden of yellow tulip bulbs outside of our 8 High Street office in South Paris earlier this month to support The Yellow Tulip Project, a youth-led effort working to end the stigma against mental illness.

A special thanks goes out to Healthy Oxford Hills and The Oxford County Wellness Collaborative for providing the bulbs for the garden. We can’t wait to see the flowers bloom next year!
