"I really can't think of a better way to ring in the New Year than to support the Crisis Center's mission by becoming a corporate partner,” stated Keri Higgins-Bigelow, President of livingHR. “Being in HR, we often find ourselves able to share resources that support employees during times of crisis. Our Consultants and I have personally given out the 2-1-1 number several times to clients with employees that needed immediate help since I was first invited to attend a tour a couple of years ago. Also, through my participation on the Woman in Action committee, I've also seen broad-reaching impact the Crisis Center has on our community firsthand."
