Our country has a history of prosecuting, convicting, and executing innocent people — disproportionately Black people. Curtis Flowers' release shows that justice is worth fighting for. But justice won't give him back the 23 years he spent trapped in the criminal legal system.

What about us? Join @ThriveCC1 this Thursday, March 5, for a presentation for the family, friends, and loved ones of someone with alcoholism or other addictions. Psychotherapist Mary Ann Daly will help you better understand how addiction shapes and affects YOU.
Millions of young people experience homelessness each year. A time of life that should be marked by stability, learning, and joy is instead consumed by countless traumas. Join us in serving vulnerable people in our community this month! bit.ly/13iaAnV #EndHomelessness
