Using this website
This site is run by The GrowthWorks Collective, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in Fairfield County, Ohio. You are welcome to use it and share what you find. Please do not try to break it, overload it, or use it to harm anyone.
Information on this site
We work to keep the Resource Map, benefits estimates and other tools accurate, but services change. Call a provider before you go, and treat any estimate as a starting point, not a promise. Nothing on this site is medical, legal or financial advice. Product screens and platform demos use fictional demo data.
Text message terms
- Program. GrowthWorks house alerts and door codes. Staff and peer supporters receive work alerts; people staying at a GrowthWorks house who opt in receive their door code.
- How people sign up is described step by step on our House text alerts page.
- Opting in. Staff and peers agree when they join. Guests agree by checking the text-message box on their arrival form. Agreeing is never a condition of getting a bed or any service.
