Project Title: The Ness Center PPW Chidren’s Art Program
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
The Ness Center is requesting $10,000 from the Hermanowski Foundation to support the children\u2019s services within our Pregnant and Postpartum Women (PPW) program. This grant will fund critical therapeutic and developmental supplies such as art materials, sensory toys, educational games, and other play therapy items. These resources are vital to helping children under 13 who have experienced significant trauma. Licensed therapists and educators work with the children daily as part of our comprehensive residential program, ensuring they have the tools and support needed for healing and growth.<\/p>\n
Our program provides addiction treatment and mental health care for mothers, along with trauma-informed care and child development services for their children. After a typical treatment period of 30-60 days, mothers and children can transition into supportive living with continued services. This is followed by rapid rehousing for up to one year, offering families stability as they rebuild their lives.<\/p>\n
We serve a highly underserved population, working closely with schools, community organizations, and family service agencies to ensure families receive the support and resources they need for long-term recovery. The funding will help us meet two key objectives:<\/p>\n
Improve the children\u2019s ability to self-regulate emotions and behaviors by 25% through enhanced therapeutic activities.<\/p>\n
Increase developmental milestone achievements in 80% of participating children by providing consistent access to high-quality therapeutic supplies.<\/p>\n
With responsible procurement practices, we\u2019ll ensure the funding is used effectively, making supplies last for the entire grant period. At the end of the year, we\u2019ll provide a detailed report to the foundation outlining how the funding has helped families heal and remain together.<\/p>\n
