HCC Meetings
We would like to announce a new meeting schedule for HCC. We will now be meeting on the first Wednesday of every month at 6:30 at the Millstream Community Center. We would love to see some new faces.
HPC is now HCC
The Hinsdale Prevention Coalition has changed it name. We are now the Hinsdale Community Coalition. We have welcomed several new members into our group in recent weeks. And the group has spoken. Our new name reflects our commitment to making our community a safer and healthier place to call "Home".
If you or a group that you belong to would like to learn how HCC can benefit you, please contact us:

Quarterly Message From HCC
All of us struggle with self-esteem issues. Some days we may feel really good about ourselves and then some days we may feel lousy about ourselves. Our level of self-esteem can be affected by even small things such as a “bad hair day”. All of us have what is commonly referred to as an "inner critic" - that little voice inside of us that tells us that we are not good enough, that we are stupid, that we are ugly, that we could never accomplish anything, that we aren't lovable, that we are not liked, and the list goes on and on. But there are few simple steps we can follow each day to help keep our self esteem up.
- Through involvement in community organizations, individuals can develop a positive sense of themselves and create meaningful community change.
- Learn something new. Create a new hobby. Take on a new physical challenge or activity.
- Be brave and take risks. Don’t be afraid of mistakes. Risk-taking builds confidence.
- Keep good company. Positive feeds positive and negative breeds negative. If you choose to be around positive people you in turn will become more positive.
- Enrich your life, make new friends, when you're happy and comfortable you develop closer friendships.
- Take one step at a time. Even a small success can bring a big feeling of competence.
Guiding Good Choices® will be offered free of charge on Tuesdays beginning March 6th at the United Church of Winchester
