Crawford County Mental Health Center (CCMHC) is excited to announce a new “Remodeling for Progress” initiative — transforming an existing apartment into a dedicated adult group room designed to support and empower clients.
This newly renovated space will include a kitchen, laundry room, and private rooms for staff and clients to meet and engage in learning daily living skills. Group sessions will cover important life activities such as cooking classes, laundry, budgeting, cleaning, and shopping. Beyond skill-building, these sessions will provide a supportive community environment where participants can connect, share experiences, and realize they are not alone in their journey.
This project will benefit clients enrolled in our adult services program and marks a meaningful step forward in expanding our support offerings.
Generous Support from the Knights of Columbus and CFSEK
The remodeling project was made possible through a grant from the Knights of Columbus, administered via the Community Foundation of Southeast Kansas (CFSEK). Adult Services Director Michelle Coulter Morrell, Patient Navigator and Community Support Services Coordinator Sherise Snider, and Grant Writer Misty Santarone recently attended the Knights of Columbus Endowment Grant award celebration, where they learned about the fund’s history and heard inspiring plans from other local organizations supported by this grant.
Crawford County Mental Health Center extends its heartfelt gratitude to the Knights of Columbus and CFSEK for their commitment to improving mental health services in our region. The Community Foundation of Southeast Kansas manages charitable funds that empower local projects like this, positively impacting individuals and families throughout Southeast Kansas.
