Invest in Impact. Make More Than a Difference.

• We are hope for the family who has tried so hard to help their son’s addiction.
• We are the promise of a healthy baby for a mom who’s exhausted from fighting every obstacle, every day.
• We are the teachers who provided the best eight hours a student’s ever had in school.
• We are the last shot for his parents, looking for a place that understands him.
• We are the helpers who bought a man a winter coat he didn’t have.
• We are the caregivers who offered respect to a woman who felt she lost her way.
• We are family for a young foster son who needs to learn to trust.
• We are the support that comes into living rooms, meeting families where they are, both physically and emotionally.
• We are the only doctor a man’s ever met who seamlessly connects him to a nutritionist.
• We are the voice on the phone when a desperate teenager needs it.

We are driven to expand access to care, ensure that it is delivered equitably, and measure the impact of our work in the lives saved and transformed through our services and programs.

In turn, YOUR passion, YOUR vision, and YOUR investment drives us.

In this issue of Giving From the Heart, we’d like to share three areas of priority shaped and identified by our volunteer Board of Trustees in a new visionary strategic plan, based on where we can best serve the needs of everyone we serve, every day.

They also align with where friends like you have told us that we’re doing the work that excites you, inspires you, and where you can see how your investment makes a measurable difference.

Your investment in any of these priority areas can help us save even more lives.

We invite you to learn about us—or relearn what you thought you knew—and help us make a better tomorrow for Connecticut, for generations to come.

We are Wheeler, and we are a philanthropic investment that pays great dividends. Thank you for your commitment to our mission and our work.
