Focus on Hope
Focus on Hope honors the shared experiences, hope, and healing found at Dougy Center.
There are two ways to support Dougy Center through the Focus on Hope campaign...
Focus on Hope Luncheon
Join us for this inspiring luncheon on Tuesday, October 29, 2024. The event will feature keynote speaker, Laurel Braitman, a best-selling author, educator, and thought leader in mental health. Laurel's work focuses on healing, grief, and emotional well being. She was featured in this Grief Out Loud podcast episode, where she discussed her quest to connect with grief and open up to love. Laurel will be joined by Dougy Center participants to share how they are finding hope, healing, and support.
