June is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Awareness Month. PTSD is a mental health issue that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a life-threatening event, like combat, a natural disaster, a car accident, or sexual assault. Symptoms may include nightmares, uncontrollable thoughts about the event, emotional flashbacks, and avoidance of the distressing memories.

Smart Ways to Give: Wire & Stock Gifts

Gifting appreciated stocks allows you to turn your financial planning into a lifeline for others.

We recommend consulting with your financial advisor to see how these strategic philanthropic gifts can benefit you and MHA.

Meet Our Staff!
We invite you to meet Kim, our GOFCC Coordinator. We asked Kim to share why she loves working at MHA.

"Every staff member at MHA has a passion for helping people. Each division has specialized knowledge and skills and we collaborate to assist our clients.

My current role with MHA, as the GOFCC Coordinator, involves helping clients navigate the licensing process when opening family child care businesses. One particular client has been so appreciative of my assistance throughout the GOFCC program. She received her license and continues to share her successes with me. She has been licensed for 5 months now and has published EXCELS level 1, is fully enrolled, and continues taking training workshops with Child Care Choices."
