Welcome to Coffee & Connections—your seat is waiting.
Our Mission
Through my own journey with PTSD and mental health struggles, I found a purpose rooted in presence, connection, and care.
Coffee & Connections exists to remind you: It’s okay NOT to be okay.
Here, you’ll find a warm cup of coffee some comfort food, a bunch of kind people to connect with, a game to play, or simply a quiet corner to reflect with a good book.
We don’t let people slip through the cracks—we extend hands, offer ears, and lend voices. Because at Coffee & Connections, radical welcome isn’t just a phrase…
It’s a promise!
—Tony Sorensen
Founder, Coffee & Connections
The Founding Circle
Where lived experience, ethical leadership, and shared healing come to the table.
This initiative is built by those who don’t just understand trauma, resilience, and radical reinvention—they’ve lived it.
Every seat in this circle honors a voice rooted in hard-earned wisdom...
Their contributions go far beyond affiliation—they are co-builders of a movement centered on radical welcome, transparency, and peer-powered healing.
Together, these seats offer not just recognition—but representation.
