Connect Palmer and Daybreak, Incorporated are hosting the first Palmer Community Resource Day on December 13th at the Palmer Depot from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm. The event will be attended by local agencies and organizations that are in Palmer (and a few from Wasilla) that provide services and connection to mental health services, substance use treatment services, housing, assistance with application for benefits, information on child care assistance, and information about the food banks available in the community.
The goal of the event is to help to increase awareness of the agencies and services available in Palmer and to assist people in connecting to the services they need in their community.
This will be a great opportunity to let Palmer know about the many folks that are reaching out to our neighbors that might be struggling. There are so many agencies and organizations doing amazing things. Unfortunately, it can often be overlooked, as the focus is turned toward those who are visibly struggling now and it appears no one is there to help.
