Here’s a recent letter that our Executive Director, Mark Redmond, wanted to share with you:
Last week I was honored to give the convocation speech at Champlain College.
After talking about my rather nonlinear path to becoming Executive Director at Spectrum, I told the first-year students that day, “You can make an impact on this world, on this planet, in every field of study, no matter what you do. You don’t need to wait… You can do it now. We need you. This city needs you.”
And, as I said these words, I was thinking of all of you—our donors, our many partners, community leaders, mentors, Spectrum staff, board members, former clients—all of you who have come together around the common goal of making sure young people get help when they need it most. All of you who keep our doors open.

Thank you for giving back to our youth. They need you.
With gratitude,
Mark Redmond
Executive Director
