Flagler Cares will host its next quarterly Help Night on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, from 3 to 7 p.m. at the Flagler County Village Community Room, 160 Cypress Point Parkway, Suite B304, Palm Coast.
Help Night, organized by Flagler Cares in partnership with several community organizations, is a one-stop help event designed to connect residents with essential services and resources. Representatives from Flagler County Human Services, the Early Learning Coalition, Easterseals, Family Life Center, Community Legal Services, the Lions Club, and many others will be on hand to assist attendees. In addition, the Flagler Cares Prevention Team will host a rummage sale with gently loved items. Proceeds support youth prevention programs throughout the year.
The event is free and open to the public and will offer help with a wide range of needs, including health and social service screenings, legal resources, childcare resources, SNAP (or food stamps) and Medicaid application support, and behavioral health services. Free vision screenings for children will also be available, coordinated by the Early Learning Coalition and the Lions Club.
“Help Night brings together caring partners who want to make it easier for our neighbors to access the services they need,” said Cheryl Tristam, Community Engagement and Care Manager at Flagler Cares. “It’s a great example of what can happen when local organizations work together to strengthen our community.”

Dennis, your comment is funny but true.

Flagler Cares is an incredible organization. There are many people/families in the area, that are just barely “hanging on.”
Financial hardship/“under employment” ( working, but too few hours, or at low pay, not enough to cover expenses)/ addiction issues/ mental health issues/ physical health issues/ food insecurity/ inadequate housing.
It’s great for all these organizations to come together in ONE spot for ONE event. Many people are overwhelmed, and don’t know where to begin looking for help. They may not know that help is even OUT THERE.
I think the sad reality of this event, is promoters are going to find that a four hour event is not going to be enough to meet the REFERRAL needs…but it’s a START.

They are a wonderful organization and I would urge everyone in the community to support them.
