1 Year and counting!!

In the last fiscal year, June 30th of 2008 to June 30th of 2009 we have had 5,328 walk-ins to the Open Arms Drop-In Center in Bozeman!!! Yahoo! This shows that we are doing exactly as we are supposed to be doing. We have 2 full time Peer Support Specialists and 7 active volunteers. Going strong!!!

We will have a new Drop-In Center sometime next year on a shared campus with the Gallatin Mental Health center, and a brand new Hope House that will have room for many more people than the 5 we can house now. Also there will be a few apartments for rent while people are in transition up on the new site and the rent will be much less than what is considered to be "market rent" in our community.

Thank you to all who have served us in any way!! We appreciate the donations, grants, volunteer work, peer-support specialists. Thanks to the community, the LAC, the CSAA, Gallatin County Mental Health Center, and all who have participated in making the Open Arms Drop-In Center a reality. We are all grateful.

Peace,
