We’re honored to highlight Kandu Island, a drop-in center in Traverse City that provides a welcoming, supportive space for individuals experiencing mental health challenges such as PTSD, depression, and anxiety.

Kandu Island is “A Place to Go, A Place to Be” – offering community, resources, and activities that help people connect and thrive. From games and crafting classes to job search support, a food pantry, and even access to a washer and dryer, they provide a safe and inclusive space for those who need it most.

Their impact is clear: by fostering connection and resilience, Kandu Island is making a real difference in the lives of so many. We’re grateful to support their mission through Precision Cares!
