Silence speaks aloud
Cheers to 2022! While we are only a few months into the year, FirstLink has already seen growth in the number of calls taken. We have handled around 230 more calls per month compared to January and February 2021. In January 2022, we began to ask some callers for their race/ ethnicity for the first time. Tracking this demographic will help FirstLink and area funders get a better understanding of the needs of the community. We are also developing a section of our directory dedicated to youth services—particularly services for youth at risk of becoming involved in the juvenile justice system. We are expanding the descriptions of these programs to include more specific details on the population that each program serves and the specific services that are provided. To make finding these resources easier, we have added a keyword search term for Youth Services to our online community directory.
