SUMMARY:Building Community Roots
DESCRIPTION:At the heart of the Galleries At LynnArts’ latest community art project stands a powerful symbol: the Banyan Tree. But what makes this tree so special? Across cultures and generations\, the Banyan Tree has carried deep meaning—and it’s the perfect inspiration for a collaborative creation rooted in connection\, care\, and growth. \nIn many parts of the world—especially India and Southeast Asia—the Banyan Tree is more than just a tree. \n\n\nIn Hinduism\, it represents immortality\, spiritual wisdom\, and divine shelter\, often linked to gods like Vishnu and Shiva. \n\n\nIn Buddhism\, it’s connected to the Bodhi Tree\, under which the Buddha found enlightenment. It stands for resilience and inner peace. \n\n\nIn local villages\, it’s a natural meeting place—serving as a center for community and storytelling. \n\n\nThe Banyan Tree is unique in how it grows: from a single seed\, it sends down aerial roots that become trunks\, creating a network of support. \nThis makes it a powerful metaphor for: \n\n\nInterconnection – each root and branch supports the whole \n\n\nCommunity strength – many parts forming a unified structure \n\n\nLegacy – standing tall through generations\, holding memory and history \n\n\nWhy the Banyan Tree for Our Project?\nOur paper Banyan Tree is built just like its real-life counterpart—from many individual contributions. Each piece you add is a root\, a leaf\, a branch in our growing collective story. \nIt symbolizes: \n\n\nHealing and hope \n\n\nCultural diversity \n\n\nShared creativity \n\n\nTogether\, we’re building more than a tree. We’re growing a living work of art that reflects who we are—stronger together. \nWhen can I stop by?\n\nWednesday\, July 2 from 12-6pm\nThursday\, July 3 from 12-4pm\nFriday\, July 4 from 12-6pm\nSaturday\, July 5 from 12-4pm\nTuesday\, July 8 from 12-4pm\nWednesday\, July 9 from 12-6pm\nThursday\, July 10 from 12-4pm\nFriday\, July 11 from 12-6pm\nSaturday\, July 12 from 12-4pm\nTuesday\, July 15 from 12-4pm\nWednesday\, July 16 from 12-6pm\nThursday\, July 17 from 12-4pm\nFriday\, July 18 from 12-6pm\nSaturday\, July 19 from 12-4pm

It is not a program or a service and is open to members with a Mass Health Behavioral Health insurance component. The key characteristics of the Wraparound process are that a plan is developed by a family -centered team\, is individualized based on the strengths and culture of the child and their family\, and is needs -based rather than service –driven. \n\n\n\n\nWhat Is The Systems Of Care Committee?\nCommunity Service Agency (CSA) and the Systems of Care Meeting (SOC) covers cities and towns in the Greater Lynn area: Lynn\, Lynnfield\, Nahant\, Saugus and Swampscott. \nThe Systems of Care Committee is intended to support the Community Service Agency’s efforts in their local geographic area to establish and sustain collaborative partnerships among families\, parent/family organizations\, traditional and non – traditional service providers\, community organizations\, state agencies\, faith – based groups\, local schools\, Mass Health and its contracted Managed Care Entities (MCEs)\, and other community stakeholders. The local Systems of Care Committee ensures that the Care Coordination of the Community Service Agency is in sync with other service delivery systems\, with state agency services\, and with informal helpers and community resources. \nThe Systems of Care Committee meets monthly to coordinate and integrate family voice into current community resources\, to identify additional supports\, and work together to offer a variety of choices to families without always having to recruit agency providers. At this time\, we have over 500 members in our SOC email group that is distributed via constant contact twice a month. Please email Kyra at kdrescher@jri.org if you would like to be added. \n\n\n\n\nWho Can Become A Member?\nMembership in the local Systems of Care Committee is open to the public and should include\, but is not limited to: \n\nParents/Caregivers\nGrandparents\nExtended Family Members\nTransitional Aged Youth (ages 14-20)\nCommunity Service Providers\nBusiness Community Representatives\nYouth and Recreation Personnel\nChild & Youth-Based Community Activity Providers\nFaith-based Organizations\nSchool Personnel\nCommunity Service Organizations\nParent/Professional Advocacy League Representative\nDepartment of Developmental Services\nDepartment of Public Health\nDepartment of Children and Families\nDepartment of Youth Services\nOrganizations interested in Providing Financial Resources through Grants/ Scholarships to Families in Need\nVolunteers in Child/Youth-based Activities and Organizations\n\nOur Vision\nWork towards the creation of a comprehensive spectrum of mental health and other necessary services which are organized into a coordinated network to meet the multiple and changing needs of children and their families. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe above information was submitted to us by Children’s Friend & Family Services\, a Division of Justice Resource Institute (JRI).
