The McCandle Project can't directly save you in your time of need, but our partners can. Whether your issue is financial, location based, or stigmatized, we know that their is a place for you to find the help you are looking for. We don't just want to share your story, we want it to have a positive sequel.
​
Additionally, not only can these places help you in your time of need, but they offer opportunities for self-involvement. The McCandle Project is the tip of a very large iceberg.
