Color me SAFE Foundation , in collaboration with Radha Patel, Founder & CEO of Single to Shaadi, invites parents, caregivers, and trusted adults to join us for:

✨ Dating, Identity & Safety: Supporting Emotionally Healthy Relationships in a Changing World

Young people are navigating dating, identity, boundaries, emotional safety, culture, and family expectations in a world that looks very different from the one many of us grew up in.

At CMSF, we approach child welfare through a whole-child and prevention lens. Helping families talk openly about healthy relationships, respect, boundaries, and safety is part of creating stronger, more protective environments before challenges become crises. 🌱

📅 September 26
⏰ 11 AM–1 PM
📍 The Drawing Board, Richardson
🎟️ Registration: $15

✨ Real Stories. Real Families. Real Impact.

At CMSF, impact is not measured only in numbers. It is found in the families who feel supported, the parents who gain the tools and confidence to move forward, and the children who experience greater safety and stability.

The words shared by this CMSF mother are one example of why this work matters. 💛

Through our three pillars, we provide direct family services and child-welfare guidance, confidential SAFE Spaces for children and adults, and prevention-focused education that strengthens families and communities.

As North Texas Giving Day approaches, we invite our LinkedIn community—individuals, businesses, colleagues, and community partners—to invest in this work.

Every contribution helps us continue showing up for families during some of their most difficult moments while also building programs designed to prevent crises before they begin.

💚 Your gift can strengthen a family. Your support can become part of someone’s story.

Please consider making a North Texas Giving Day donation to Color me SAFE Foundation.
