—Mark A. Frey, President & CEO, AMITA Health and Alexian Brothers Health System

HIGHLIGHTS

FOCUS 2016

Home

The Alexian Brothers Foundation will provide philanthropic support to mission-critical Alexian Brothers ministries of AMITA Health. It will fund services for individuals and families marginalized by poverty, homelessness and illness. It will enhance clinical care. It will focus on transforming the community’s health through the One Life at a Time vision for behavioral healthcare.

One Life at a Time

AMITA Health Behavioral Medicine’s vision is to give every person access to the behavioral healthcare he or she needs in the right time and place. A residential facility will provide long-term, live-in care. A full-time advocate will strengthen partnerships and funding. Expanding specialty care while sustaining supportive housing and community-based services will ensure everyone can access optimal treatment. Intervening earlier will permanently alter the course of individuals’ and families’ lives.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT

Achieving this vision will not be possible without the investment of the incredible community of benefactors who comprise the Alexian Brothers Foundation. Thank you.

MAKE A GIFT TODAY.
