This Spring, Help Us Grow!
This Mental Health Awareness Month, invest in your community's mental heath with a gift of any amount.
Spring is a season representing growth and renewal—two themes we resonate with deeply at Momentum for Health. Here, we believe that it's never too late to change and that recovery is possible with the right support.
Given the inspiration of spring, it's fitting that May is Mental Health Awareness Month. If you've been thinking about making a meaningful gift to invest in your community's collective health, May is the perfect time to support our work.
When you make a gift of $10 or more this month, we'll send you a special Momentum seed paper as a thank you for helping us grow. Simply soak it in water, place it in soil, and keep it moist in a sunny spot!
This season and beyond, let's cultivate compassion and tend to each other just as we would tend to an abundant, nourishing garden.
Robert's Story
When Robert first came to Momentum for Health, he was grappling with more than just the physical challenges of multiple sclerosis (MS). He was also facing the emotional toll it had taken on his life. "Before Momentum, I felt overwhelmed and discouraged," he says. "My disability was dictating my potential." But with support from his case manager and the team at our Downtown Outpatient Program, Robert began a journey that would allow him to rediscover his purpose.
Shea's Story
Six years ago, Shea was "in a world of dysfunction." As a new mom, Shea wanted to be the best she could be for her young son, but generational trauma, addiction, and chaos kept her in a pattern of turmoil that was hard to break free from. When she came to Parisi House on the Hill, a program of Momentum, Shea was able to keep her son with her throughout treatment—something she credits with making all the difference in her recovery. Today, both of them are at peace and thriving.
Tera's Story
For Tera, the road to recovery has been a non-linear journey. From a young age, Tera struggled with suicidal ideation and self-harm. Eventually, she found herself at a point of deep despair. After surviving a suicide attempt and spending years in a state hospital, Tera arrived at Momentum's Crossroads II program. "Recovery isn't a straight line," she reflects. "But with Momentum’s support, I’ve found my rhythm again." Tera is now making plans for her future—plans she never thought possible.
