Statement from Our President & CEO

We stand with our Asian American colleagues, partners, clients and all affected in the wake of the horrific mass shootings in Atlanta and Acworth.

This act of terrorism has produced additional anxiety and unease in the AAPI (Asian American Pacific Islander) community, which has been targeted by acts of racism and xenophobia since the beginning of the pandemic.

As a trauma-informed organization, we know that words matter, and we all must call out bigotry, hate and white supremacy.

CHRIS 180 is committed to being a safe space for those who are dealing with the recent unthinkable acts of violence. We stand with each of you in your grief and fear.

Kathy Colbenson, LMFT

President & CEO
