FROM
THE
CHAIRMAN
T
Hello everyone.
he theme of this year’s impact report is “Together, we can!”. In 2019, this was especially true…
because of you.
Why? In 2019, you made a thirteen-year dream of a Foundation, fundraising campaign and capital
project a reality. In 2019, your unwavering support made the Foundation fully functioning and growing in
impact. In 2019, your partnership and generosity made the Foundation’s initial fundraising campaign a success,
with combined contributions of more than $14 million to the Foundation’s inaugural capital campaign. In 2019,
you made breaking ground on the new River Edge Recovery Center possible. Because of your support, this
state-of-the-art doorway to recovery will open during 2020. We are so grateful for your impact!
We also appreciate your joining with us to reduce the stigma commonly associated with the
brain-based health conditions of mental health challenges, substance misuse conditions or intellectual
and developmental disabilities. Thank you for promoting the messages that recovery is possible,
meaningful inclusion is important, and everyone counts!
Together, we help make life better.
