We all have a list of things we want to accomplish. But when was the last time you made a list of everything you've already been through, learned or accomplished?

It's called a "reverse bucket list," and it might be a helpful way to look at your life a little differently.

Our own Board Member, psychologist Dr. Rachel Needle, was recently featured in TIME magazine discussing how recognizing our past experiences, including the difficult ones, can help us appreciate our resilience.

As Dr. Needle explains in the article, "You're more resilient than maybe you're giving yourself credit for on a regular basis."

At 211 Palm Beach and Treasure Coast, we know that life comes with challenges. Sometimes progress means reaching a goal. Other times, it's getting through a difficult day, finding support or taking that first step to ask for help.

Those moments matter, too.

We're proud to share Rachel's insights and encourage you to read the article.

And remember, when life feels overwhelming or you need help finding local resources, 211 is here. Just dial 2-1-1 to connect with support.

Supporting healthy development starts with giving families access to the right tools and resources. ๐Ÿ’™

On Tuesday, October 6, families with children under age 5 were invited to the Main Library in West Palm Beach for a FREE developmental screening event.

Through 211โ€™s Help Me Grow program, families can access free developmental screenings, learn more about their childโ€™s milestones and connect with community resources that support healthy growth and development.

From communication and motor skills to problem-solving, social skills and behavior, developmental screenings help parents and caregivers better understand how their children are progressing and identify areas where additional support may be helpful.

And the support doesnโ€™t end with one event! Help Me Grow provides ongoing guidance, care coordination and connections to resources for families with young children.

An important 211 service is expanding to Martin County.

211โ€™s Elder Crisis Outreach (ECO) program is now available to Martin County residents ages 60 and older, extending a service previously available only in Palm Beach County.

When an older adult is facing grief, isolation, financial hardship, loss of independence, emotional distress or another crisis, knowing where to turn can make all the difference. ECO provides crisis counseling, needs assessments, connections to community services, advocacy, follow-up and more for older adults, their families and caregivers.

We are grateful to the Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties for the new funding support that made this expansion possible.

Need help for yourself or someone you care about? Call 2-1-1 and ask for the Elder Crisis Outreach program.
