ARCHS' Neighborhood Healing Network (NHN) is among a select group of 20 individuals, organizations, and initiatives that will be recognized by FOCUS St. Louis for making a difference at the 25th Annual What’s Right with the Region (WRWR) Awards Celebration.

On May 12 ARCHS' NHN will be honored by FOCUS St. Louis, the region’s premier leadership organization. These honorees were nominated by the public and selected by a committee of local leaders for their impact and service to the community.

ARCHS' NHN is being recognized as an emerging initiative. These honorees are promising new businesses, organizations or initiatives that are already serving as catalysts for change.

Since 2020, ARCHS awarded $1.75 million and provided strategic support to design, launch, and implement NHN. Learn more: http://www.stlarchs.org/60-about/565-archs-awards-750-000-to-increase-and-enhance-services-for-crime-victims-and-victimized-communities.html
