You Thrive FL Children's Advocacy Center

A huge THANK YOU to the Hernando County Tax Collector’s Office and the incredible citizens of Hernando County for your generosity and support of the children we serve at You Thrive Florida’s Children’s Advocacy Center! 💙

Thanks to your snack drive donations, our shelves are stocked with comforting snacks for children and families who come through our doors during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. Something as simple as a snack can provide a sense of comfort, care, and normalcy when it is needed most.

We are so grateful to Amy Blackburn for organizing this effort and to every community member who took the time to donate. Your kindness demonstrates what makes Hernando County such a special place—a community that comes together to support and protect its children.

Today was a day we will never forget. A dream 18 years in the making . 💙

We officially broke ground on the future home of You Thrive Children’s Advocacy Center!

What began in 2007 in two small portables at Kennedy Park has grown into a vision that will soon become an 11,000-square-foot facility dedicated to protecting children, supporting families, and providing hope and healing to victims of abuse in our community.

This milestone would not have been possible without the incredible support of our community, partners, donors, staff, board members, MDT partners, and elected officials who believe deeply in our mission.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Chief Financial Officer Blaise Ingoglia for championing this project and helping secure the $2.5 million appropriation that made this dream possible. Because of his leadership and commitment to children, this building will proudly bear his name.

You Thrive Children’s Advocacy Center— The Blaise Ingoglia Center.

Thank you to everyone who joined us today to celebrate this incredible moment. Your support means more than you can know 💚

While we still have work ahead and approximately $1 million left to raise, today was a powerful reminder of what can happen when a community comes together for children.

Thank you to Tampa General Hospital North for being our first room sponsor!!

Thank you to Spring Hill Well Drilling for donating the well for our new facility!

Together, we are building more than a building — we are building hope.

We were honored to receive a proclamation from the City of Brooksville last night recognizing April as Child Abuse Prevention Month. 💙

This meaningful acknowledgment highlights the importance of standing together as a community to protect our children, support families, and raise awareness about child abuse prevention. Every child deserves to grow up in a safe, nurturing environment—and it takes all of us to make that a reality.

We are grateful to our city leaders for shining a light on this critical issue and for their continued support of our mission. Together, we can make a difference.
