Six months ago, none of us could ever have guessed that we would be in the middle of a massive health crisis. These are challenging times for all of us, and Rising Ground and the people we support are no exception. We are in a tenuous position, and we need to ask you to join us as we continue our work. Rising Ground supports children, adults, and families that face the greatest adversities life has to offer. The Covid-19 pandemic and efforts to curb its impact add additional stress to all our lives but especially to the people who count on Rising Ground -- the poor, single mothers, people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, those living in our residential programs, and so many others.
