Thank you for coming to "see" us at MasLove In Action!
We are so glad you're here, and we are working on getting all of our services set up as quickly as possible, so we can keep our commitment to providing HIGH QUALITY coaching and support to people in crisis who may not be able to afford these services.
We are currently serving people in the following groups and their families on a first come/first serve basis:
1.) Nurses and all hospital staff
2.) EMTs and Firefighters-especially VOLUNTEERS
3.) Police
4.) Grocery workers and other front line workers
5.) Anyone who has lost a loved one to Covid-19
6.) Teenagers who have lost a parent to Covid-19
7.) Employees at nursing homes
8.) Employees at any nonprofit still serving clients
9.) Teenagers in crisis
10.) Formerly incarcerated people
11.) Currently homeless or recently homeless (in past 5 years)
12.) Anyone who has lost a job
13.) Business owners who have been severely affected by Covid-19
14.) Young adults 19-28 who are in crisis
We are currently serving 5 clients weekly and our schedule is filling up fast.
We are growing fast, so we are currently recruiting well-trained as well as fairly new coaches who would like to volunteer and/or are interested in getting paid a low fee for their services. Please email [email protected] with Subject line "I'm a Coach who Cares."
We are also rapidly developing quick 15 minute "Calm the Inner Storm" sessions that ANYONE can call into and access for a quick pick me up, and a refocus tool, so that you can be effective and alert as we continue to be working people during this crisis. This should go Live by Friday, April 17.
Also, if you are employed, please contact your employer about your Employee Assistance Programs which offer free therapy. These services are usually very good and we recommend contacting them FIRST. Thank you.
