Ledyard National Bank recently donated $1000 to West Central Behavioral Health in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month and in recognition of their important programming and services that treat mental illness and substance use disorders, while working to eliminate the stigma associated with mental illness in our society in the Upper Valley. Ledyard is proud to support West Central Behavioral Health’s mission, as we both strive to strengthen our community’s health and well-being.
Ledyard National Bank also recently donated $2000 as a Community Partner to Headrest in recognition of their 50th Anniversary. The funds will go toward their capital campaign to help cover costs to upgrades at their Church Street location. Plans include renovations to bedrooms for 14 clients, kitchen, bathrooms, staff and hotline office space, along with energy efficiency and security upgrades. Ledyard is proud to support Headrest’s mission to support individuals and their families, friends and neighbors affected by substance use, navigating recovery, or in crisis, by providing effective programs and treatment options that support prevention and long-term recovery. If you are experiencing a crisis or are in need of support, please call the 24/7 Crisis-Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273-TALK.
