Today, on Indigenous Peoples Day, we honor the histories, cultures and contributions of Indigenous peoples and celebrate the Native communities shaping our world today.

At Maryville, our work is rooted in respect for the dignity of every child and family.

May this day encourage us to listen to Indigenous voices, deepen our understanding and help build communities where each person’s identity and heritage are valued.

Years ago, Kierra Johnson, shown in the photo during Maryville Crisis Nursery's 20th birthday celebration in late July, turned to the Maryville Crisis Nursery when she needed a safe, nurturing place for her son.

Today, she owns a daycare in Indiana, inspired by the care her family received.

Hear her remarkable story at the Maryville Crisis Nursery Fall Luncheon on Wednesday, Oct. 21, at North Shore Country Club in Glenview. Join us to help make that same support available to families facing a crisis today.

The reception begins at 11:30 a.m., followed by lunch and a program concluding at 1:30 p.m. All proceeds benefit the Maryville Crisis Nursery.
