Please join us in welcoming Jaden Fear to the Building Strong Brains team as our first intern!
Jaden recently completed her freshman year at Saint Mary's College and is a Lilly Endowment Scholar. This summer, one of her primary projects is helping increase awareness and utilization of Find Help, a free online resource that connects individuals and families to local services and support such as food assistance, housing resources, healthcare, childcare, transportation, and more.
We are grateful to have Jaden on our team and look forward to the impact she will make this summer as we continue working to support children and families across Elkhart County.

Last week we welcomed women in nonprofit leadership from across Elkhart County for a day of connection, conversation, and encouragement.
From leadership discussions to moments of mentorship and reflection, it was a reminder of the strength that comes from women supporting and learning from one another.
