One thing we notice working with nonprofit leaders is how rarely they fully disconnect.

A day off becomes a chance to catch up on email. A vacation becomes time to think through staffing challenges, grant deadlines, budget gaps, and board questions.

The reality is that mission-driven work follows many leaders everywhere they go.

Still, stepping away has value.

A different city. A different routine. A few days without rushing from meeting to meeting. Sometimes that’s enough to return with a clearer perspective on problems that felt impossible a week earlier.

The work will be waiting when you get back.

Harvey & Smith Impact founder recently joined nonprofit and public sector professionals at Mental Health Advocacy Day at the Vermont State Capitol. People from across the state gathered to speak with elected officials and raise awareness about the real challenges facing Vermont communities.

As Executive Director of the Hartford Community Restorative Justice Center, Blake was proud to represent the organization’s work at the intersection of accountability, reentry, and mental health. During the day, Blake had the opportunity to meet Vermont State Treasurer Mike Pieciak, a true ally to this work, and share how community-based restorative justice efforts like HCRJC’s are part of the broader mental health landscape across Vermont.
