“This year has been challenging for all of us, but even more so for those who have mental illness and instabilities,” said Donna Maddox, AIM Center’s CEO. “For Thanksgiving we do not want to lose sight of all we are thankful for, especially each other.”
Officials said, "The AIM Center could not do all it does without the help from our community. Monetary support can be given by visiting www.aimcenterinc.org or by mailing a donation 472 West Martin Luther King Blvd., Chattanooga, Tn., 37402."
