We’re excited to welcome you to a special live recording of the Mental Health Hour Podcast from our new home—The BAR Coffee Club!
This is an exciting new chapter for Building a Refuge. The BAR Coffee Club will be more than just a place to enjoy incredible coffee—it will be a place where conversations begin, hope is shared, and community is built. Our new space will allow us to host monthly support meetings, private events, live podcasts, and create a one-of-a-kind coffee experience centered around connection and encouragement.
