New Directions - TAC

As Mother’s Day approaches, our team at New Directions wants to recognize the mothers, grandmothers, and maternal figures who create safety, compassion, and strength within our community.

For many, this day is joyful. For others, it may be complicated. We hold space for all experiences and honor the resilience of survivors throughout Mount Vernon and Knox County.

We’re grateful for every caregiver who leads with love and for every supporter who helps us continue providing survivor advocacy, trauma-informed care, and essential resources.

Wishing you warmth, comfort, and connection this Mother’s Day.
