Motherhood is deeply rewarding, but it can also be exhausting and overwhelming. Motherhood Unfiltered is a free monthly support group designed to give moms a safe, welcoming space to connect, recharge, and feel supported.
The group is facilitated by a licensed therapist who understands the emotional realities of motherhood.
Complimentary childcare is provided in a fun and safe environment, allowing moms to focus on themselves during the session.
Mothers at any stage are welcome. Come as you are and be part of a supportive community that understands.

🎶📣 CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS 📣🎶
Are you interested in volunteering at Okeechobee Music Festival (OMF) and receiving FREE entry? This year, Okeechobee Healthy Start Coalition made the decision to cancel our Purse Bingo and instead take on two beverage tents at OMF as one of our largest annual fundraisers. To make this possible, we need reliable volunteers!
📅 Thursday, March 19 – Sunday, March 22
We are looking for 45–50 volunteers to help staff beverage tents throughout the festival.
✨ Volunteer Perks:
✔️ FREE festival access for the day you volunteer
✔️ FREE parking
✔️ A fun way to experience OMF while supporting a local nonprofit
Volunteers will assist with selling beverages via iPad and/or making drinks. All tips plus a portion of drink sales directly support our programs and the families we serve 💚
