The Chill Out event of 2026 is one to remember!
Our therapists along with the Edge Teen Services and the Boys & Girls Club of West Chester/Liberty championed mental health and connection for families in our community with fun activities at each booth!
Thank you to our sponsor, Butler County United Way, our host, the Midpointe Library, and thanks to all who attended and volunteered!
Because of your generosity and dedication to families, we were able to provide mental health tips, hands-on coping strategies and connection activities for families to use in their own homes.
Thank you for investing in our community and helping us transform lives together! 💙

Today we’re celebrating Lisa and her one-year anniversary with our agency! Over the past year, Lisa has been a source of support for the teens at Edge East. She has a special ability to connect with teens who may be more reserved, helping them feel comfortable, supported, and heard.
Lisa is always eager to learn and grow, especially in the area of play therapy. She isn’t afraid to step outside her comfort zone, try new skills, or jump into a new group activity—and her willingness to learn and grow is truly appreciated.
And if you ever need a restaurant recommendation, Lisa is definitely our go-to person!
Thank you, Lisa, for all that you bring to our team and to the families we serve. We appreciate you and are so grateful to have you on our team!
