Cumberland Juvenile Detention Center now has an inspirational mural and a calming water feature. We are grateful for the participation of volunteers within the Fayetteville community along with artists Edie Cohn and Jerdahn Campbell.
This is a mental health initiative designed to promote positive emotional well-being using an outdoor space. This space will introduce trauma-focused care initiatives to encourage emotional recovery and the building of resiliency skills. It is now known that environments whether indoor or outdoor will have an impact on our emotional well-being.
The next phase on this project is a community planning meeting on August 15, 2019. We are excited about the beginning of phase 3 with therapeutic garden areas.
