Primary exempt purpose
Cereal for Dinner provides support, services and resources to aid in meaningful, functional recovery for people with mental health challenges. Last year we revamped our entire website to make it more user friendly, reorganize resources and attract more users. To do this, we switched website platforms, used additional software and hired a web designer. Our new site attracted over 16,000 page views. We also developed our group coaching program to offer more hands-on support for engaging in life activities. We hired a business coach to support us with launching the program, which piloted in November, 2025.
