Be a Hope Hero

Be a Hope Hero is a grassroots response to funding cuts that put critical mental health funding services at risk. It’s a bold, public-facing campaign uniting individuals, small businesses, and mission-driven companies to protect mental health care in our community. Every dollar of this campaign goes directly to frontline mental health services at Jefferson Center.

The Challenge

A sudden freeze in federal mental health funding left Jefferson Center with a $1 million gap, jeopardizing essential services for children, adults, and families across our region. From crisis care to school-based counseling and recovery programs, our community relies on these services every day. This isn’t a future problem. It’s happening now.
