Okanogan County is so fortunate to have the Foundation for Youth Resiliency and Engagement (FYRE).

There are a variety of local mental health providers in Twisp and Winthrop who are able to offer support with a variety of needs. We recommend contacting them for availability, insurances accepted, and to determine if it is a good fit for your needs.

Our Youth Housing Advisory Board identified that one of the barriers to more independence is knowing some of the skills it takes to manage your life (sometimes referred to as "adulting").

Like so many of you, we are loving this time of year with abundant harvests.

We wrapped up a pilot 6-week women’s group in August and will be starting another round this fall.

We spent the six weeks during our pilot Substance Use Support Group mostly working on building connections to end the feeling of isolation, which is one of the biggest factors in harmful substance use/drinking.

We have been working with the Methow Valley News team to publish a magazine in recognition of our 25th Anniversary.

We will celebrating together with a community block party in front of the Room One buildings on October 14, 11-2pm.

We are humbled constantly by the trust our community has in us to serve and to lead. People have been sharing what they can with Room One since our beginning, and we know this looks different for everyone. For some, it is an incredibly meaningful gift to share financially. For others, it might look like spending time volunteering with us each week. In every case, we know that your support is a gift for our community and one we steward with care and accountability. Thank you for being part of us and for the many ways you have given and continue to give to keep this work happening.

Recently we held a workshop sharing findings from the Community Based Needs Assessment focusing on teens and their parents in the Methow Valley.

The turnout for our 25th anniversary Block Party was amazing! We're still hearing all sorts of fun stories from community members who were able to be there and we have so much gratitude for everyone involved.

As we delve into fall, bundle into sweaters, and share Room One's news, we reflect on the past few months with smiles and true gratitude.

Some tips for staying as warm and dry (and safe!) as possible:

Room One and the Methow Valley School District teamed up to hold a mental health symposium about the healthy growth and development of teen and tween girls.

Over the past year co-hosted by FYRE and Room One, our Youth Leadership Council members created a Teen Survival Guide.

Join members of the Room One staff, board, and volunteers at these upcoming events!

As we enter into this new year full of opportunities, I have found myself reflecting on the hopes and desires that are shaping our future directions.
