#MYAUGUST3RDSTORY

We all have a story. We want to hear yours.

Following the August 3rd tragedy, the El Paso United Family Resiliency Center launched United & Resilient, a podcast intended to share stories of hope and resilience. A place where community leaders and experts could share their knowledge on a variety of topics including mental health, FRC programming, active living, and more.

Now we want to take it a step further, by asking all community members to share their unheard August 3rd stories with us.

INTERESTED IN SHARING YOUR STORY?
