Let's Make Peer Respite Accessible!
Tax deductible
Access isn't everything, but it's the FIRST THING!
Grassroots Empowerment Project is opening a Peer Run Respite in western Wisconsin. Peer Run Respites are non-medical crisis alternatives for people who are experiencing mental health challenges and need or want a supportive place to stay -- but want to avoid going a hospital. 24-hour support is provided by people who have overcome mental health challenges, themselves, and can offer the support of someone "who's been there."
We found a suitable location that was already wheelchair accessible but we lost the place because of issues with zoning and locating in a residential neighborhood. After exhaustive searching, we found another place -- but it isn't wheelchair accessible. The very first person who inquired about coming to stay at the respite was a person who used a wheelchair. Renovations to the home are beyond what our budget allows for, so we need help to make these renovations happen. Please help us make the respite accessible by donating to our renovation fund!
