Our gratitude to everyone who provided support, food, and more to their community today. Counselors from Deschutes County Health and from around the state were on hand at the Central Library, providing free drop-in support to anyone who needed it. A variety of certified therapy dogs were available outside the Central Library for anyone who needed canine comfort. And free food was generously provided by Thump and Cocina Flores thanks to generous financial support from Les Schwab. Deschutes County Health will continue to provide drop-in counseling services this weekend at Larkspur Community Center (1600 SE Reed Market Road in Bend; 1-6:00pm Saturday, 1-4:00pm Sunday). THANK YOU EVEYRONE FOR SUPPORTING ONE ANOTHER.

The Central Library will be open for regular hours this weekend, but do note that counseling services are moving to Larkspur on Saturday and Sunday.
