  2. The first-of-its-kind urgent care center for children dealing with a mental health crisis opened Monday in Wake County at the Hope Center for Youth and Family Crisis in Fuquay-Varina. With the hope of helping as many families with children ages 5 to 20 the center will be providing 24/7 access to care, 365 days a year. (WRAL News)
  3. For the past five and half years, Maggie Kane has been running her cafe, "A Place at the Table," her way, which means customers pay what they can. The eatery, located on Hargett Street in downtown Raleigh is unique, to say the least. According to WNCT, Kane had this to say, '“We’ve been here for 5-and-a-half years, which is wild. Am I surprised? I’m surprised, every single day, by just how beautiful this place is. I’m surprised that it’s worked, that it’s continued to work and I’m grateful.”' (WNCT)
