Did you know that 1 in 3 kids are currently facing a serious mental health challenge? 

So many of us have struggled through these last few difficult years. Now just imagine what it’s been like for our kids. Anxiety, stress, depression and loss have become the collateral damage of the uncertainty and isolation of COVID-19. And similarly to adults seeking mental health services these days, professional help is scarce– or not available at all.

So this year we’ve doubled down on our efforts to end the children’s mental health crisis in Rhode Island, and we’re making it our number one priority. And we’re asking you to join us by donating during 401Gives.   

Each dollar donated during 401Gives will be matched, up to $8000!

Getting Back to School https://www.familyserviceri.org/getting-back-to-school-2022/ Wed, 03 Aug 2022 15:15:41 +0000 https://www.familyserviceri.org/?p=7332 Every year Family Service of Rhode Island (FSRI) collaborates with local business and community partners to ensure that students are returning to school with confidence!

Children and families in our programs face significant challenges. We can often level the playing field so that children and their parents can achieve their potential. New backpacks promote self-esteem and excitement for children who otherwise may not have new supplies for the coming school year.

Help us make sure that Rhode Island’s children have what they need when they return to school in September!

How can you help?

If your business is interested in supporting our back-to-school initiative, send us a message!
