211 call centers are located all across the U.S., fielding confidential, anonymous requests from people during their most vulnerable moments to connect them to the services they need, from housing assistance to mental health and substance abuse resources. But these individual calls tell a greater story. As The Wall Street Journal's Rachel Wolfe shares with Marketplace by APM, 211 is "a really great window into the state of the American consumer." It is an economic trend predictor. And right now, 211 is sounding the alarm bell on the state of poverty in the U.S. Read more: https://lnkd.in/ekeQRsjJ

Celebrate the work of United Way of Greater Waterbury’s Kay (Karen) Mello and Copper Beech Institute’s Brian Thompson with me. Thank you for the impact you’ve made for educators and youth in my community. 💕
For the last year, we’ve been providing mindfulness training to youth, teachers, and parents throughout Waterbury. Our Director of Programs Jennifer Frontiero attended the United Way of Greater Waterbury’s 37th Celebration and Awards on April 24th. Here's an excerpt from Jenn on the night: "Picture this: a room buzzing with anticipation, pulsating with the spirit of achievement and unity. And let me tell you, folks, it was a night to remember, dedicated to honoring the incredible power of philanthropy and community partnership. The evening kicked off with a powerful reminder from Grant Copeland of WORX, urging us to "quiet the noise" and truly listen. His words resonated deeply for me, echoing the very essence of mindfulness at the core of CBI's mission. It was like a guiding light illuminating our path toward the United Way's Campaign, "Help Every Voice Be Heard." Surrounded by over 350 luminaries of our community, I found myself in awe of the collective spirit driving positive change in Greater Waterbury. From the dynamic duo of GWUW Chief Impact Officer Jered Bruzas and Community Impact Cabinet Chair Yarixa Lopez we experienced a glimpse into scale of the work initiated by Director of Community Impact Kay Mello and executed by CBI’s Director of Community Engagement. Their clarity of vision for serving their community well astonishing, and we are honored to play a part."
