      <image:title>About Us</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Harvest Center CLT Passport Program is a biblical, value-based incentivized environment for non-chronic homeless families and individuals. Their goal is to walk alongside motivated people through a transformational journey.  The program includes assessments, creating goals with a Person-Centered Plan (PCP) or Family-Centered Plan (FCP), and meeting weekly with a Transformation Specialist.  In their program, participants overcome root causes and obstacles, learn new skills &amp; habits, and break the cycle of situational homelessness through God’s Grace and the Eight Dimensions of Wellness. The FACTS Initiative provides child therapy, family therapy, parental coaching, and group therapy for participants of The Harvest Center’s programs.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Events - Therapy Kits</image:title>
      <image:caption>Huge thanks to the Charlotte Knights volunteers who rolled up their sleeves with us! Together, we assembled 100 “Healing Starts” kits for children and families who are just beginning therapy through The FACTS Initiative. Each kit offers simple, comforting tools to help families ease into the first steps of healing. Want in on the next build? Email info@thefactsinitiative.org and we’ll keep you posted!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Events - FACTS Fest 2025</image:title>
      <image:caption>What a great turnout for our inaugural FACTS Fest in the park! We invited families to experience a morning of guided yoga, breathwork, stretching, and calming activities for all ages, paired with creative crafts and lighthearted fun for kids. All proceeds supported our mission to provide trauma-focused mental health care to children and families across Charlotte. Thank you to all our volunteers who made this possible and to everyone who came out to support us and our families!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Harvest Center CLT Passport Program is a biblical, value-based incentivized environment for non-chronic homeless families and individuals. Their goal is to walk alongside motivated people through a transformational journey.  The program includes assessments, creating goals with a Person-Centered Plan (PCP) or Family-Centered Plan (FCP), and meeting weekly with a Transformation Specialist.  In their program, participants overcome root causes and obstacles, learn new skills &amp; habits, and break the cycle of situational homelessness through God’s Grace and the Eight Dimensions of Wellness. The FACTS Initiative provides child therapy, family therapy, parental coaching, and group therapy for participants of The Harvest Center’s programs.</image:caption>
