What kind of community do we want to live in?

A community where people show up for one another. Where survivors are met with compassion. Where healing is supported by neighbors, businesses, volunteers, and friends.

This week, Bri from Extravagance by Bri reminded us what that looks like by donating her time, talent, and care to provide a free spa experience for survivors in our community.

Creating a safer, more compassionate world requires all of us. Every act of generosity, every volunteer hour, every donated skill, and every dollar invested helps build the community we want to call home.

Thank you, Bri, for being part of that vision.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month

Healing after domestic violence or sexual assault is rarely a straight line.

Some days it looks like therapy.
Some days it looks like setting boundaries.
Some days it looks like surviving.

Mental health isn’t a task to complete or a finish line to cross.

It’s a practice.

Free & confidential help is available 24/7 through Putnam Northern Westchester Women’s Resource Center.

“We are the difference between someone remaining in a risky unsafe relationship and someone finding refuge, rebuilding their lives, and getting a path forward in life.” 💜

At the Greater Mahopac-Carmel Chamber of Commerce Businessperson of the Year Dinner, our Executive Director, Piaget Solpiaget, reflected on the impact of the Putnam/Northern Westchester Women’s Resource Center.

As we were honored for our 45-year milestone, Piaget recognized the unwavering commitment of our staff — the compassion, dedication, and strength that make a real difference every single day.

Because this work is more than a mission — it’s life-changing.

As was said that evening: we are saving lives.

Thank you to the Chamber for this recognition, and to everyone who continues to stand with us in building a safer, stronger community.
