TurningPointCT.org was developed by young people in Connecticut who are in recovery from mental health and substance use issues. We know what it’s like to feel alone, stressed, worried, sad, and angry. We’ve lived through the ups and downs of self-harm, drugs and alcohol, and the struggle to find help.

My bad, I logged in under the wrong account, this is only a re-post however.
Deadline for submitting your letters is at the end of this month.
Also, donors wishing to contribute the program may also get in touch with TCC (Contact 203-853-0600 x 103 to reach the program coordinator.
Here’s a brief description of the program:
“The Gay Santa Program connects donors with an LGBTQ person-in-need to enable that individual to receive a gift this holiday season. Gift recipients have signed up through Triangle Community Center’s case management program and written a letter requesting an item that’s value does not exceed $100.
Once an individual signs up as a donor, TCC provides them with their LGBTQ person-in-need’s letter.
Gay Santa donors may drop off their recipient’s gift or mail it to our offices, wrapped or unwrapped. We will be wrapping any non-wrapped gifts.
Gift recipients will receive their gift during a special event at TCC in December with other gift recipients to share in community and have a big holiday feast.”
More details is available on TCC’s website, in addition to other exciting events coming up this winter: http://www.ctpridecenter.org/gay_santa_2016
