Park Center was honored to be among the incredible individuals and agencies recognized at the Salute to Excellence Awards, presented by the Center for Nonprofit Excellence of Middle Tennessee.
Congratulations again to our Chief Housing Officer, David Langgle-Martin, a finalist for C-Suite Professional of the Year! 🎉

David has helped Park Center grow and transform our housing programs from services alone into services, property management, and now property development. Because of his work, we can support more members and show what affordable housing for people with mental illness and substance use disorder can be.

David, we are so proud of you. 🏠

You read about Cassandra. Now hear from Dave.

Dave’s story speaks for itself. So does the support that helped him get here.

Here’s the truth: we can only do this with your support. When you come out to Celebration of Courage, you help fund the things that make our services work:
🍎 Food
🚗 Rides to medical appointments
🏠 Household items for members’ homes
and so much more...

Without that support, nothing works the way it should, and our members are the ones who suffer. YOU can change that. YOU can be the reason someone has a success story like Dave’s. All you have to do is show up.

What a night, Nashville! 💛⚽

A massive thank you to Nashville SC Community for honoring Park Center as their Section 615 recipient at last week’s match against Sporting Kansas City!
Section 615 is a special section at GEODIS Park dedicated to Nashville community members doing good work in and around Music City. 🎶 Our team was proud to be recognized.

30 of our staff and members joined in the fun, and for many of them, it was their first match ever. Seeing their faces light up in the stands is something we won’t forget. 🙌

Thank you for shining a light on the work Park Center does and for giving our people such a special evening.
Now let’s bring home that Supporters’ Shield and the MLS Cup! Go Boys in Gold! 💛💙

Meet Cassandra. 💙
Over the past few weeks we’ve shared the fun of Celebration of Courage. Today we want to show you what it’s really about.

👇 Read a small piece of Cassandra’s story below:

“My name is Cassandra Hall. I was diagnosed with a mental illness at age 9, started using drugs at 12, and aged out of foster care at 18 with no one to lean on. For years I lived on the streets of Nashville, caught in addiction and crime. When I faced going back to prison, I took a chance on a court program, and later I found Park Center. I applied, got accepted, and haven’t looked back. Today I have my benefits, my mental health care, and a 5-year-old son. Is everything perfect? No. But having people in your corner makes the sky the limit. Thank you, Park Center.”

Cassandra is one of hundreds of members Park Center supports every year, and your support is what makes stories like hers possible. When you show up, you’re giving hope to the hundreds of Cassandras in our community.

You can be part of the next story. All you have to do is:
🎃 Come out for a fun Halloween morning
🌳 Enjoy a beautiful location with your family and friends
🎤 Hear firsthand stories of triumph over incredible obstacles

This story is only a snapshot. You can meet Cassandra in person on October 31st, when she shares her full story at Celebration of Courage.

A huge thank you to Meagan and the Neighborhood Patient Advocacy Federation group at Vanderbilt who put together and delivered first aid kits for Park Center, for multiple years in a row at this point.

These kits will go directly to our members living on the streets, giving them essential supplies to help them stay safe while we work to get them into housing. 🏠

You are quite literally saving lives, and we can’t thank you enough. 🙏
