Service Delivery By Heartland RADAC During COVID

Heartland RADAC continues to serve clients while maintaining effective health and safety protocols for both clients and staff. 

Heartland RADAC requests that all clients and staff practice safe social distancing recommendations while engaged in services.  All local mandates by local county or municipality health departments, will also be followed. Masks are recommended for any in-person contact, especially if you have not been vaccinated.

In-person Assessments, Case Management, Peer/Recovery Coaching, and Treatment are available.  Phone, and video appointments are available on a limited basis, dependent on client access to a phone or computer.  We are now required to get signatures on releases, as the state of emergency waiver which allowed verbal consent has expired.  Signatures can be obtained via DocuSign, if you have access to a cell phone or email, or you can download the forms from the Release Forms & Notifications link at the bottom of this page. 

Please call us at 913-789-0951 or 1-800-281-0029 to schedule an assessment. 

Schedulers will ask you a series of questions to determine your eligibility and the type of service (in-person, phone, or video) which will best meet your individual needs. 

Facebook Co-founder Finds Jumo, A Social Network for Nonprofits

What can one person possibly do after they’ve created one of the most popular websites on the planet? Create another one. Chris Hughes, co-founder of Facebook, took a stab at another social media website. According to their website, Jumo is a social network connecting individuals and organizations who want to change the world.

Hughes, along with helping Mark Zuckerberg create Facebook in a Harvard dorm room, also ran President Barrack Obama’s online campaign that vaulted him to the White House. Hughes thinks those skills can be applied to nonprofit organizations to help them connect with constituents in a whole new way.

Since it’s founding in February 2010 with the official site launch this past November, Jumo has set out to help you find issues and organizations you care about in hopes that you support their work with your time, money and skills.

Chances are you have a Facebook account. If you do, the experience on Jumo should feel similar. Using your Facebook login information, you can join Jumo, take a quick survey about the causes you care about. Then you have access to the news from those organizations and issues. It’s similar to getting the latest scoop from your News Feed on Facebook.

If you don’t find the nonprofit organization or issue you’re looking for, any 501(c)(3) with a charitable mission can create a profile for their organization. So encourage your nonprofit to get involved. Jumo will process donations for organizations that provide the appropriate information.

But Jumo is less about donations and more about connections. You can add to the cause by simply connecting today. What does Jumo mean anyway? In the West African language of Yoruba it means, “to come together.” Hopefully Hughes can achieve success once again and get people to come together and support causes they care about. Our world will be better for it.

Beautiful things grow when we work together for good.
