MTW Collaborative

We were honored to be recognized in this month's Family Promise of Lawrence newsletter following our recent Day of Service. While we're grateful for the recognition, we're even more grateful for the opportunity to partner with an organization that is making a lasting impact on families experiencing housing instability in Douglas County.

Strong communities are built through collaboration, and we're proud to work alongside partners like Family Promise to help create pathways to stable housing and brighter futures.

If you'd like to stay informed about Family Promise's work, learn about volunteer opportunities, discover available services, and find ways to get involved, we encourage you to subscribe to their newsletter. It's a wonderful way to stay connected to the important work happening in our community.

Thank you, Family Promise, for all you do to support families in Douglas County. We look forward to continuing our partnership.

Today we celebrated an exciting milestone for Transforming Western as we officially broke ground on a new Connections Building, Destination Park, and expansion of the Beaumont Youth Center. These neighborhood components will offer residents economic opportunities, healthy food options, a new park, and youth enrichment.
