ALICE in Hernando: One Crisis Away From Poverty
ALICE refers to the population in our community who are Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. The ALICE Population represents those among us who are working whose salaries do not match Hernando's general cost of living. ALICE families live a life of struggle, but our communities can’t live without them. If we truly embrace the word community, if we honestly believe we’re all in this together, then there’s only one answer to the question: Who is ALICE? WE ARE ALICE. And together, we can make a difference.

Stress Management
Stress is a fact of life. Overbooked schedules, demanding work hours, long commutes, an outburst by an angry boss, a stand-off with a defiant teenage child and the bad news that makes headlines every day are all contributors to the increased stress that many feel. Now more than ever it is important to recognize signs of stress in ourselves, our families and our communities and take the necessary steps to reduce stress and intervene if needed.
