In 2014, the Dana Brown Charitable Trust generously supported the renovation, improvements and increased capacity of Great Circle’s St. Louis campus. These improvements are a key component of Great Circle’s campaign, For The Path Ahead, which is transforming the campus into a Regional Family Engagement Center, significantly increasing access to behavioral and mental health care for their community’s children and their families.
With support from the Dana Brown Charitable Trust, Great Circle’s campaign, For The Path Ahead, will result in direct services to over 5,500 children and family members in the St. Louis area each year.

As a result of the support from the Dana Brown Charitable Trust, Great Circle will help each child overcome the effects of trauma, with the goal of facilitating positive decision making, inspiring personal growth, and realizing improvements in health, academic achievement and social skills. This investment from the Dana Brown Charitable Trust will impact the lives of children and families today, and for generations to come.
