Connecting Through Creativity at the Be My Brave Event

At the end of this month at Be My Brave Event, youth leaders from UT and parents came to table and experience moving performances by Charlotte locals who expressed Mental health topics through artistic expression on stage! Families who participated, were able to connect to resources as well as share important resources and information that Center for Prevention Services offers.

March Highlights

Welcome Aboard!

We’re excited to welcome Christine LeSan, our newest team member at Center for Prevention Services!

With nearly 10 years of experience working with the unhoused population, she’s joining us as a Linkage Navigator & Caseworker, working alongside our Queen City Harm Reduction team to support our community and connect clients to care.

When she’s not working, you can find her enjoying sports, concerts, exploring the South, and spending time with her daughter, Maya.

Help us give her a warm welcome!
