So THIS happened…Make Time for Reading author Jean Ciborowski Facey, PhD had an anonymous donor reach out to her and asked if they could purchase 500 copies of her book in English, Spanish and Portuguese to donate to Health Imperatives so we could help the families and children we serve improve their reading skills and enjoy a good book together.

We are so grateful for this incredibly thoughtful donation! To learn more about Jean and her book, visit link in bio or www.Jeancfahey.com

For survivors of sexual violence, emotional wounds can last long after the physical ones have healed.

Anxiety, fear, depression and trauma can linger and healing doesn’t happen on a schedule.

On World Mental Health Day, during Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we’re reminding survivors that their mental health matters and that their experiences deserve to be believed.

Through Health Imperatives’ A New Day program, survivors don’t have to navigate healing alone. We are here for confidential, compassionate support whenever they are ready.

A New Day is here for you - 508-588-8255.

Survivors of violence get to choose the path toward healing that is right for them after an assault.

Sometimes this may involve law enforcement, school, work, family and friends, or counseling services.

Sometimes it may be to choose none of these options. There is no right or wrong way to healing after an assault.

The only imperative is that we should believe survivors and recognize that they know what is best for them.

Whether the assault happened today or over 20 years ago, A New Day is here to help.

You can speak with a trained advocate 24/7 on our hotline at 508-588-8255.

We are starting a series, so you can get to know the phenomenal team members at Health Imperatives. First up, is Haley Sousa.

Hi! My name is Haley (she/her) and I have been a sexual assault counselor at A New Day for 3.5 years. Passion drives me in this field, and I thoroughly enjoy getting to support survivors at any stage in their healing journey. My clients have been my greatest teachers, and I am consistently in awe at the resilience and strength embodied through survivorship.

Over the last couple of years, I’ve hosted several survivor-centered art-based groups that have been a fun way to intersect the creative part of my personality with my clinical practice.

I am always looking at ways to expand my clinical knowledge and one of the many reasons I love working for Health Imperatives is because of the consistent opportunities for clinical growth.

When I’m not working, I enjoy crocheting, traveling, and spending time with my cats.

Thank you, Haley for all you do for our clients!

October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month - a time to raise awareness and support survivors. It’s also about prevention and what you can do to take action before violence happens.

It could mean believing someone who shares their experience, or talking openly about consent and healthy relationships. It’s also about modeling respect for our children or speaking up when something doesn’t feel right.

Survivors are not alone and they deserve action. Help is available. Call us at 508-588-8255.

This month and every month we ask you to think about what you can do to create healthier, safer, and stronger communities.

World Contraception Day weekend is a good time to remember that access to birth control matters every day.

We believe everyone should have access to the information, care and contraceptive options they need to make decisions about their reproductive health.

Across Southeastern Massachusetts, our clinics provide confidential birth control services, emergency contraception, pregnancy testing, STI testing and treatment, and other sexual and reproductive health services - regardless of insurance status or ability to pay.

Because reproductive health care isn’t about one day. It’s about access, choice, and the care you need all year long.

A concerning new study shows more women are missing routine cervical cancer screenings - including nearly 1 in 3 women ages 21-29.

Prevention starts with access to care. Health Imperatives can help with vaccinations, routine screening and the follow-up care you need to stay healthy.

Don’t put it off. Make your health a priority!
