Music has a powerful way of bringing people together, and we’d love for you to be part of an evening filled with connection, creativity, and inspiration.

Did you know research shows that having your basic needs met reduces stress and increases confidence, helping people engage more fully and consistently in treatment.
When someone walks through our doors for treatment, many arrive with almost nothing. Your donations allow us to provide hygiene products and other essential items that restore a sense of normalcy, dignity, and self-care at a time when life often feels overwhelming.
This holiday season help New Beginnings offer a fresh start by participating in our Dignity Drive. We're seeking donations for men’s clothing items. You can drop off or mail donations. Here are items we are looking for this season.
1. Winter Coats (all sizes)
2. Shoes or boots (all sizes)
3. Hats
4. Gloves

This is a good reminder.

The holidays are often a time for celebrating with family and friends. Whether you love these reunions or find them overwhelming, they can also be stressful.
