With 24 years of serving the community, Healthy Start of Sarasota continued their services by presenting to the Campus of Caring. To end the fiscal year we offered our agencies a way to connect through #GlasserPassports. The program provides an opportunity for staff working on the campus to meet and learn more about their neighbor agencies. At each gathering, one tenant partner presents information about their mission, programs, needs, and resources. Neighbor agencies attend to get a better understanding of the wide range of services that are right here on our Campus of Caring. The events spark discussion, ideas, connections, and collaborations.
Patricia McMahon, Development Director of Healthy Start Coalition of Sarasota County, Inc. presented at the #GlasserPassports on Thursday, June 30th. With nearly five years under her belt in this position, she has created a name for herself within the agency, nonprofit world, and beyond. Her friendly face and thought-provoking ideas keep the Campus of Caring a beautiful home to more than 16 nonprofit agencies who are all providing remarkable services to a number of counties.
Through The Glasser/Schoenbaum #GlasserPassports program, the nonprofit organization was able to inform all of us of who they are and why the work they do matters. Their coalition is one of 32 throughout the state of Florida. The organization provides support services to pregnant women and infants. The services are aimed to improve pregnancy, health, and developmental outcomes, increase access to health care, reduce low birth weight and preterm birth, and decrease infant mortality and morbidity.
Agencies from around the campus and members of The Glasser/Schoenbaum office attended the program with open ears, minds, and hearts. As a small but mighty campus, we were able to join one another in an invaluable experience. One that educates, promotes collaboration, and increases awareness about issues and available services that our world continues to face or desire.
Glasser/Schoenbaum Campus Connection programs are possible through the generosity of Gulf Coast Community Foundation.
