Thanks to a $25,000 grant from the Trillium Community Benefit Initiative, the main Counseling office for Looking Glass therapy services now offers a resource pantry for active therapy clients and families. The pantry includes basic food items (perishable and non-perishable), hygiene items, clothing and some toys. Since opening the pantry in February, more than 200 families of counseling clients have utilized the pantry.
“Clients having access to basic needs (food, clothing, toiletries) not only supports those clients, families, and the community with their needs getting met, but allows them to have a greater sense of safety in their everyday lives,” said Jaime Ellsworth, Looking Glass Intensive Outpatient Support Services (IOSS) Clinical Supervisor.
