A full day of learning, connecting, and planning for what’s next! Leadership Athens sat in on an Athens Texas Economic Development Corporation meeting, joined the Athens Kiwanis Club for lunch at Athens Country Club and heard from Lila Lane Outreach, and toured the Athens Fire Dept. and Cain Center YMCA.

Assistant Chief Harris and Chief Burnside shared insights at the fire department, and Membership Director Marisa and Executive Director Brian welcomed us at the Y.

The class also chose its community project, and we’re excited to see them bring it to life over the next six months!

Thank you to everyone who welcomed us and shared their time and work. We’ve got a great group of leaders who care about Athens and are ready to make a difference!

BIG NEWS FROM THE HENDERSON COUNTY HELP CENTER!

The HELP Center is honored to announce that the Henderson County HELP Center has received a grant from the Texas Bar Foundation to support our new program, HELPing Seniors Through Crisis and Beyond!

This important initiative will help senior adults in Henderson County with information on victimization, senior explotation and other challenges that can arise during a possible victimization. Through information, referrals, resource navigation, and connections to community and legal services, we hope to help seniors find the support they need—not just during a crisis, but as they move forward. This program will also provide information and prevention programs to help seniors and thier loved ones understand all forms of victimizations and fraud.

The Help Center is incredibly grateful to the Texas Bar Foundation for investing in the seniors of Henderson County and helping us expand our ability to serve our community.

“Since its inception in 1965, the Texas Bar Foundation has awarded more than $32 million in grants to law-related programs. Supported by members of the State Bar of Texas, the Texas Bar Foundation is the nation's largest charitably-funded bar foundation.”

This grant represents an important investment in our community’s seniors and will help the Henderson County HELP Center continue to be a place where people can turn when they need help, hope, and a connection to resources.

Together, we can help seniors through crisis—and beyond.
