Allies in Change

The mission of Allies in Change Counseling Center is to raise awareness of, educate about, and encourage the practice of healthy, loving and respectful relationships with oneself, one’s partner and family, and the community. As our name reflects, Allies in Change intends to promote working with others as allies. We acknowledge that some cultural values such as traditional definitions of gender roles and power undermine a person’s ability to be fully loving in relationships. We seek to address and change these values on individual, familial and societal levels. As an agency, we seek to practice these values ourselves in both our professional and personal lives. The most rewarding part of working in a counseling center is witnessing the positive change in people's lives. Whether you are part of the positive changes or just a witness, there is something very gratifying about helping make other people's lives better.
