Our Why
Preventing, treating, and healing the effects of toxic stress. Together.
The physical, behavioral, and psychological effects of toxic stress are preventing our community from thriving, creating devastating cycles for our children, shortening lives, and straining our police force & hospitals. In Springfield, we already spend millions each year reacting to and fighting the manifestations of toxic stress. It's time to think differently. Let's unite to prevent, treat, and heal our community. Proactively.
