Meet Kipper, Ms. Jen’s best friend. Remember talking about PIESSF in class? We are whole beings with Physical, Intellectual, Emotional. Social, Spiritual, and Financial needs. When we pet our dogs, cats, lizards, hedgehogs (ouchie), snakes (yikes), tarantulas (😳) we pour into our need for physical touch. Our pets give us emotional support because they listen without judgment ☺️ (they do!). When we play with our pets, it’s social! Pets sure can affect our financial needs—Kipper had surgery last year for eating a piece of a toy that got lodged in his intestines 💸! Pets are awesome in so many ways and Aspire would LOVE to see yours! Send us a photo of your pet (send to jwelter@aspirerelationshipcenter.org) and we’ll post it on our account! 🐁🐇🦔🦜🐈🐕🐩🐠🐢🐍🦎🐖🦮🐎🐒

#givingtuesday⁠⁠ is officially Tuesday, December 1st! Each year, nonprofits, small businesses, corporations, schools, and faith-based organizations all over the world celebrate this global day of giving. GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement, unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world. Will you join Aspire in our mission to help us shake up Citrus County? As we continue to encourage youth to be intentional about avoiding risks, your donations will help us create an amazing teen peer program. Are you with us? Please go to https://www.aspirerelationshipcenter.org/give/general-contribution/ — or go to our bio! Your gifts are so greatly appreciated! We’ll be sure to consistently update you on our teen peer program! Happy Holidays from Aspire!

Happy Thanksgiving from Aspire to you and your families! 🧡🦃🍁🧡 We are thankful for YOU!

Will you consider Aspire this year on #GivingTuesday? We are in the process of creating a teen peer program because we believe teens can influence each other in significant ways. We may need to pay for interesting venues to meet with teens, teen events, and we'll be creating unique marketing that will grab teens' attention. Are you with us? If you are, click on the link in our bio. Any amount is precious and useful to us! Thank you so much for your support!

We are planning something exciting, would you DM us your experiences with Aspire’s classroom program? Your submission is private! We want to hear from you!!

Let’s give our veterans some love! Did you know before 1954, November 11th was originally known as Armistice Day? The fighting in World War I ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. In 1954, Armistice Day became Veteran’s Day. 💚🖤🤎🇺🇸

Register for our Parent & Significant Adult presentation! Students: Tell your parents or whoever takes care of you to register!! Spread the word! Attending one of our presentations helps us to keep our funding so we can continue to provide our programming to Citrus County youth!

If you were a shoe, which would you be and why? Mrs. Jen’s would be Crocs. Relaxed, unique, funny looking, and multi-purpose. How about you? #mrsjenloveshercorgi

Citrus County youth: We are here for you! We want to hear from you! 📣📣

Check out our blog where we challenge adults to be mindful of giving our youth some respect. Teens: Remember to respect adults! Respect CAN go both ways! The link is in our bio!

We at Aspire love fall! Sweaters, cool breezes, and continuing to bring our programming to students are some of our favorite things about fall. What’s your favorite part of fall?

We are always seeking to understand teens better. We wanted to share this great tip from Ascend: “For teens, “full stops” (i.e. sentences that end with a period) are seen as “intimidating,” and are assume to convey a tone of anger or frustration. “Pistaphobia,” or fear of the period punctuation mark, is definitely a thing amongst teens. Since teens see each individual text as a full thought, adding a period can seem unnecessary and even passive-aggressive. Of course, for those of us who aren’t digital natives, skipping the period at the end of a text isn’t exactly second nature. But when your teen pings you with team practice times or a quick message to say they’ll be a little late, be aware that your quick response of “Okay.“ could be interpreted as terse or foreboding.” We hope this is helpful. Teens, is it true?!
