Program Director, The Bell Center
I’m most excited about the Mercedes Marathon 2022. We will have Bell Runners and celebrate the 20th anniversary of the race.
“
I get to come to work everyday at the best place ever. The Bell Center staff is made of a group of women who pour their hearts into serving babies and children with special needs. The support and encouragement given to families of these children is often life changing. Parents often show up unsure of what the future holds for their child. On a daily basis I get to see therapists and families celebrate big and small accomplishments of a child. What a blessing to be a small part of this process!”
If I had an out-of-town friend coming to Birmingham, I would take them to The Bell Center to see our amazing new building. When I need inspiration I like to visit
Cinnamon rolls from Rolls Homewood is the best food I have eaten recently in Birmingham. Birmingham’s BEST kept secret is
the summer produce stand in the parking lot of Trinity United Methodist Church.

Executive Director, Mitchell’s Place
“
We are excited to share that Mitchell’s Place is expanding! In order to serve all families on the autism spectrum and relieve our waitlist, we have leased space on Arlington Avenue in Southside. It will open May 17th and will operate as an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Outpatient clinic, for now. Mitchell’s Place is hopeful to add other services in the near future. As we are able to offer more services, we let families involved know. Mitchell’s Place is overjoyed to spread our wings and serve more families! The new location allows Mitchell’s Place to expand and grow at a manageable pace. The new location will be called MP Southside. We will actually share a parking lot with Triumph Services, Inc. which serves teenagers and adults with autism with employment and life skills.” 14 16T OTWO NW N
ABOUT ABOUT
Red Mountain Park.
There’s a lot to look forward to in Birmingham for the rest of 2021 now that things are getting back to normal. That is welcome news to service organizations in Birmingham who rely on fundraisers and events to further their missions. We asked some of our favorite children’s organizations what they love about Birmingham and what they’re most excited about. We think you’ll agree!
I’m most excited about
the new Protective Life
Stadium! It is going to be another catalyst for our city.
If I had an out-of-town friend coming to Birmingham I would take them to The Club, The Atomic,
Highlands Bar and Grill, and Oven Bird. When I need inspiration I like to visit Railroad Park and The Rotary Trail. They were both
transformational in the revitalization of Birmingham.
Le Fresca is the best thing I’ve eaten recently in Birmingham, and the Campesino Coconut Mojito from Craft’s on Church Street is the best
drink I have recently tried.
Birmingham’s BEST kept secret is
Red Mountain Park. I go monthly and love it!
