Support Hope and Solace's Mental Health Mission
In these times, it's evident that the United States requires an enhanced mental healthcare system. At Hope and Solace, our dedication lies in offering affordable mental health services. We firmly believe that cost should never be a barrier when seeking high-quality mental health support. Founded by Licensed Clinical Social Worker Ani Ifiktchyan, Hope and Solace Community Mental Health Center began as a response to a growing need for affordable mental health services. After starting her career as a private practice therapist, Ani recognized that many in the community were struggling with mental health issues but lacked the insurance or funds to access care. To address this, she established the nonprofit to ensure that everyone, regardless of financial situation, could receive the support they need. Ani grew up in a low-income household as the child of immigrants and witnessed her parents struggle, relying on government assistance. This experience shaped her belief that socioeconomic status should never determine access to essential services such as mental health. Your donations will help cover the startup costs needed to create a safe space for therapy and group sessions. Contributions are crucial to ensuring that we can provide a welcoming environment for those seeking mental health support.
