Join us for our 2026 Gratitude Gathering, an uplifting evening of reflection, recognition, and celebration centered on hope, healing, and impact.

Together, we will honor remarkable individuals whose compassion, leadership, and dedication are transforming the lives of children affected by Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and trauma. Their work deepens understanding, sparks meaningful action, and strengthens communities.

This special evening celebrates our shared commitment to creating safety and resilience for every child. Experience powerful stories, inspiring voices, and meaningful connection with a community of changemakers who believe in the power of possibility and lasting change.

What does your investment actually do? Where does it go, who does it reach, and how do we know it’s working? This gathering is our answer — an intimate, candid conversation with Center for Child Counseling’s CEO and Chief Quality Officer, guided by the data that tells the story of our collective impact.

At the heart of our work is a commitment to accountability that goes beyond anecdote. Our Data Dashboard is a real-time intelligence system — powered by centralized intake, geo-mapping, and monthly feedback cycles — that ensures every dollar directed toward children’s mental health is working as hard as it possibly can. Together, we will walk through what the numbers reveal, celebrate what your generosity has made possible, and look ahead to what we are building next.

This is more than a reporting session. It is a moment to see yourselves in the data — to understand the lives changed, the families stabilized, and the futures redirected because of the circle of support you have helped create. And it is an opportunity to hear directly from the leaders who translate that data into action every single day.

We are grateful to Circle of Giving Founder and Chair, Melissa Haley, for opening her home and making this meaningful evening possible.

We invite you to experience one of the most meaningful spaces in our work — the Family Visitation Center, where children and families come together in safety, compassion, and hope.

This intimate gathering offers a rare opportunity to step inside the environment we have so carefully designed: home-like visitation rooms, spaces built for play and connection, and a team of specialists whose approach goes far beyond supervision. Here, every visit is an act of healing — guided by coaching, attunement, and the deep belief that every family deserves a chance to grow stronger together.

Join us for a personally guided experience of the space, and a conversation with our staff about the transformative work happening within these walls. The Family Visitation Center represents some of the most profound and underrecognized work in our region — and we want you to see it, feel it, and understand why it matters.
