Hurricane Helene Community Recovery & Resiliency

At SparkPoint, we are dedicated to addressing the well-being of our community in the wake of Hurricane Helene.

By providing resources and support, we aim to help individuals and families navigate the challenges they face, restoring not just physical safety, but also a sense of hope, connection, and stability. Our commitment is to stand by our community as we rebuild together, ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to recover and thrive in the aftermath of this disaster.

Community Trauma: Healing through Connections

SparkPoint’s mission is to foster community-driven growth and well-being by addressing the root causes of health disparities. Through collaboration, connection, and integrative health strategies, we empower individuals and communities to build resilience, improve health outcomes, and create lasting, transformative change.

Our Mission:

Transylvania County & Regional Initiative

The Wellness Rooted in Connection (WRC) Project is a transformative initiative designed to address the root causes of economic instability, social isolation, and mental health disparities in Transylvania County. Built on a collaborative framework of over 40 nonprofits, businesses, and government partners, WRC integrates economic empowerment, workforce resilience, and mental well-being to create lasting community impact. By expanding living wage certifications, strengthening small businesses, and implementing evidence-based emotional intelligence and mental health programs, WRC fosters a more connected, thriving community. This initiative prioritizes historically underserved populations, including the Black Rosenwald community, Hispanic families supported by El Centro, and those hit hardest by Hurricane Helene’s economic aftermath. Grounded in data-driven strategies and community-led solutions, WRC is building a replicable model for regional well-being and economic vitality across Western North Carolina.
