<div>If you know Liam, you know he has a great heart and a truly wonderful, goofy, loving spirit. You may also know that he has had his own unique struggles with mental health within the Griffin family's more public battle with obtaining services and supports for their daughter's health and education. This spring everything fell apart.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In March, things reached a critical point, and it became clear that Liam was no longer safe in the home. He had had trouble at school with a bully again, and we found a Wilderness Therapy Program that would accept him, help him to get stabilized, and provide a much-needed updated assessment, as well as medication management and a chance to make some changes. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For several years at home, we were struggling to get our doctors to try a new medication regime, and had begged for a new psychiatrist to take us on. Liam’s outbursts at home and acute panic attacks made him a challenging case to take on. And one that only private ($$$) psychiatrists would consider. There really is hostility and a chance to be nickel-and-dimed at every turn on the path to try and help someone who is genuinely wanting to feel better. It’s so discouraging. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have long ago crossed the bridge from getting what we need covered by Medicaid. And there are often limited means to access what we feel Liam needs, or might benefit from, even if we had the money. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Fortunately, the good people at Blue Ridge Wilderness Therapy were incredibly good at what they do. We came away with answers, and a plan to support Liam. Now we can shore up areas where he has been struggling academically, so that school won’t be a chaotic nightmare that causes outbursts after prolonged suppression. Now, he can learn some of the things that his brain needs help processing and integrating. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Everyone deserves this, and actually every child in America is entitled to a Free Accessible Public Eduction. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Liam is stable, and we are beyond blessed and grateful to report that we have been able to get the treatment we need after years of suffering and searching everywhere. Unfortunately, none of this is was easy to obtain. Finding intensive mental health interventions and psychiatrists who will listen to parents is, in our experience, almost impossible. Getting insurance to approve medications can be a months-long process of jumping through hoops, and even then, denials. And that's if you can get someone to believe that you are experiencing the level of chaos, violence and distress that your child's dysregulation is causing within the home in the first place, which is rare. 
</div>
<div>Getting a proper diagnosis can take years and cost thousands of dollars. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Having two kids with disabilities means not only that it is harder to keep both parents employed consistently, but that it is impossible to save for the endless future of caring for them that we know is coming. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In Liam's case, everyone has been telling us that things were not as serious as we feared for many years. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now that we know that he will need intensive residential treatment for a minimum of 18 to 24 months, we are scrambling (once again) to accommodate rapidly ballooning needs for funds. The future is yet-again less certain than it once was, and though we are hopeful, we know that out of pocket costs for therapeutic boarding school is actually significantly higher than even out of state private college tuition. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Until we can reach an agreement with Liam’s home school district, we are on the hook for $17,000 a month for Liam’s room, board, coaches, therapy, and everything else. And that’s just tuition.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At present, we are UNDERemployed, and neither child is able to access medicaid due to new regulations imposed by the Trump regime’s increasingly hostile policies for the disabled. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This means we are not only paying out of pocket for Liam’s medications, but shipping them across state lines. Costs on costs on costs. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Liam needs to know that we can come visit him at his new school. He needs to be able to come back to his house when he is done with school. He needs to see that his parents are okay when we have our weekly half hour zoom, and our hourly therapy sessions. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And in order to keep things going, we need way more help from our Village. Because flights and hotels and rental cars are expensive. And we never traveled before all this! 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If Liam ever made you laugh, if he ever sang at the school Band concert and impressed you, if he ever broke your heart being thoughtful out of nowhere, or if you ever saw him truly in distress and thought, "Man, that kid really has some stuff going on..." please make a donation or check out the requests on our CaringBridge. We also need help watching our pets when we go to see him and his sister, and just learning to be human again after the past few years. If you are a close friend, please reach out. And if you read this far, thank you.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please, if you don’t have the means to donate, just continue to stay informed about the changes in policy that are being made. Advocate for young people. For families. For mental health. And for the disabled. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We love you, and we thank you.

Help Us Fund Urgently Needed Psychiatric Care for Our Son

<div>Friends,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/91603285_174905984457211_r." width="100%" />

</div>
<div>This is Neve. Neve is...extraordinary. As you know, if you've met her.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Neve is in crisis, and it’s one that we have to accede we are unable to manage in our home.</strong> She needs a kind of medical intervention that is beyond our capacity as parents, and way beyond that of the medical professionals around us, who know less about PWS than we do. Luckily, that kind of intervention exists. There is one place (ONE!!) in Houston, Texas called the Nexus Jump Start Program, which specializes in the inpatient care of young people with PWS to help stabilize and empower them to live to their potential.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>The issue: it is exceedingly expensive.</em></strong> And Medi-Cal, the state of California's Medicaid system, which provides Neve's healthcare, normally very attentive to the needs of its disabled citizens, has <strong>DENIED THIS CLAIM</strong> for Neve. We can't appeal, and have no safe in-state options at this very critical moment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>So we've come to you for your help.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>She was born without a name, a departure from her older brother Liam. We didn't know her until she arrived, early, but named her moments later with an ancient word that describes bright, crystalline mountaintop snow. Clarity. In the coming months, we would get to know her in ways we never imagined and in ways that would change everything.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Neve was born with an exceedingly rare, impossibly complex genetic disorder called <a href="https://www.pwsausa.org" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Prader-Willi Syndrome</a> (PWS), which affects somewhere in the vicinity of 1 in 20,000 live births. The hallmark of PWS is hyperphagia, a cruel dysfunction of the endocrine system that prevents those living with the disorder from feeling <em>satiety</em>. That means, when Neve eats, her brain doesn't process the fundamental chemistry telling her that she is full. In fact, the opposite occurs. At best, Neve always feels hungry; at worst, she feels like she's starving. What is made manifest from this dysfunction is a crisis of ruthless, legion symptoms that prevent Neve from living a life that is, well, full. Neve's life is absent of friendships, playdates, parties, or typical ten-year-old fun.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Imagine that for a second: it’s been too long since your last meal; you’re trapped in meetings or in traffic, and the hours grind on. You’re probably not at your best. In fact, you’re probably closer to your worst self than not, and through no fault of your own. Your body is driving you to a feeling of scarcity, sometimes terrifyingly so, in an effort to exhort you to eat, and when you do, you adjust. Imagine the relief. Now imagine a world where you are inherently robbed of that agency, and relief doesn’t exist.
</div>
<div><em>That’s Prader-Willi Syndrome.</em>
</div>
<div>There is no relief.
</div>
<div>(Remember those Snickers commercials where people turned into Joe Pesci? It'd be like being stuck as Joe Pesci.)
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As a result, people with PWS suffer from an existential anxiety that leads to myriad deleterious behaviors that include self-harm, perseveration and obsessive compulsion, explosive dysregulation, sleep disturbances, and in many cases, psychosis. This says nothing of the very real medical issues that come with this kind of metabolic disorder such as obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and sleep apnea. It seems as if this list goes on forever.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>To add to the inimical nature of the syndrome's hallmark, starvation, PWS patients suffer from a slower metabolism, meaning even on calorie-restricted diets, they gain more weight on far less food. Neve eats every two and a half hours on a calorie-restricted diet monitored by her PCP, nutritionist and endocrinologist.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>An hour prior to each meal, Neve begins asking "how long til I can eat again?" Until recently, the answer was met with great efforts toward understanding: timers, fidgets, crafts, phone calls to family to distract from feeling so hungryyyy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>However, the path of PWS is not constant, but parabolic. Around adolescence, hyperphagia accelerates, sometimes swiftly and brutally, leaving children and families at sea where they once felt secure. Such has been Neve's journey, and by extension, ours.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For years, we have considered ourselves "on top of it," facing issues with PWS as they came with clarity and swiftness. No hesitation, no denial about what was happening. We lock our kitchen at night; we police any food or food wrappers assiduously; we time our own meals and snacks; we avoid talk of food; we avoid television that contains mention or image of food; we train all school staff to keep food out of lessons and therapies, and not to use food as reward or incentive. Our house is a fortress built to protect Neve from her most destructive instincts. But these measures have started to fail us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><em>In just the past six weeks, Neve has experienced a regression so profound that it has become exceedingly difficult to keep her safe even in our own exceedingly secure home.</em> We have met every extreme behavior with a commensurate increase in extreme security.It's not enough to help her. She is struggling, and the doctors we have are too unfamiliar with her syndrome to fully support her.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We ask with humility and hope that we still live in a society of altruistic individuals, that you'll consider donating literally any amount. We hope that our community can willingly mobilize for the good of their peers and neighbors in the absence of structures and leaders that seem willing to do so. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We have seen it over and over again, and now find ourselves in that very moment of need, not for ourselves, but for a little girl with a life to live.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With Profound Gratitude,
</div>
<div>The Griffins
</div>
<div><br />

Support Trang Family Home Lost in Eaton Fire

<div>Mina, Michael and their sweet children Maru and Sisu lost their home in Altadena to the destructive Eaton Fire. In one night, they lost a house they had spent five years making a home, with all their memories, keepsakes and personal belongings.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Their lives have been turned upside down by this loss. They were away at the time, leaving them unable to prepare nor save the the things they hold most dear, losing everything while hearing the news from afar, and holding out hope their beloved home would be spared. Everything, gone in an instant.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thankfully, they are all safe, but the emotional and financial toll of this tragedy has left them struggling as they now confront these next steps of picking up the pieces and moving forward.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are reaching out today with a heavy heart, but also with hope. The road ahead is long and uncertain. As they slowly begin to adjust to this initial shock of their new situation and mourn the loss of the life they knew, they need our immediate assistance to help them get through this hard time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Anyone who knows Mina, knows what a bright light she is. One of the most generous, loving and supportive humans I know. Always ready to drop what she's doing to offer writing insight, wisdom, companionship and humor. Her friendship has been one of the greatest gifts to those around her.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Any and all help is so greatly appreciated. Let's show this beautiful family our love and support as they navigate this indescribable loss.
</div>

Help Mina, Michael & Family Rebuild After Fire

<div>Please consider donating to the Piercey family as their daughter Maya is currently fighting for her life from complications due to a bacterial infection and severe respiratory illness; now progressing to other organs. She is currently on ECMO as they pray for a miracle. Maya has both Prader Willi Syndrome and Kabuki Syndrome making her rare and extremely medically complicated. The Prader Willi community is a tight knit group, and The Locklair and Walker families want to support them the best way we can. Relieving any financial burden will allow them space to focus on what matters most.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Andrea (Maya’s mother) has approved this fundraiser with appreciation to our community. We ALL remain hopeful, but we also know that the strain of an expensive and extensive hospital stay will be present long after these next steps.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We extend this fundraiser, our prayers and our hope to the Piercey family and will update when possible.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you.

<div>On February 6th, 2024, our friend Spike lost his life on the set of Marvels WonderMan shoot at CBS Radford studios due to a potential structural failure. We are hoping the Production Company, The Facility, MBS, Marvel Studios handles things properly, but expect a long road fraught with attorney fees and expenses. In the mean time, bills will be mounting and the widow, Boom Operator Joanne W. will be left to deal with everything. Help if you're able, it's greatly appreciated.

<div>Hi, my name is Juliet Diaz, the founder of <a href="https://www.spiritboundpress.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Spirit Bound Press</a>. Spirit Bound Press aims to disrupt spirituality, magic, and wellness publishing with diverse voices.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>The Movements Purpose: </strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Spirit Bound Press needs funding, and we don't have the privilege of big corporation funding campaigns, investors, or loans. What we have are our communities and faith. Word of mouth isn't the best way to raise 100k in a month, but it is all we have for now, and we genuinely believe that WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER! 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Are we a little nervous, with frequent sweaty palms and sneaky urges to hide in a cave away from the world and never look back? Yea, a little, but we are doing BIG things and BIG work to create BIG changes, which can be scary. We. Us. CommUNITY. We got this! So many spiritual warriors are present right now, reading these words, ready to support this Movement.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Bringing awareness to our mission and fundraiser is the purpose so we can show up fiercely and do the damn thing! (more on what "the damn thing" is below) 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So...
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Who is Spirit Bound Press:</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Spirit Bound Press is a revolutionary imprint birthed from the resounding call and need for more diverse and inclusive books in spirituality, magic, and wellness. We are dedicated to amplifying the voices of Latinx, Black, Indigenous, people of color, and marginalized and underrepresented communities, appropriated from, and silenced by traditional publishing channels. 
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>Publishing writers with authentic roots, cultures, practices, and experiences in their works acts as a conduit of truth in the stories, wisdom, medicine, and magic of the communities we are part of and embrace. 
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Backstory (why we started):</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Juliet Diaz the founder of Spirit Bound Press (learn more from her bio on our website), is known for her works and presence as an empowering voice in the Spiritual and magical community. She left traditional publishing shortly after being asked to be a mentor with the US Diverse Wisdom Initiative at her former publisher, where she saw for herself the lack of experience and understanding in how to support diverse authors. This, along with the reality check from the  #PublishingPaidMe hashtag, showed her the existing inequality and how deeply rooted this was and intentional. 
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>After meeting with her former publisher about it, not only were they dismissive, but they also continued to offer her meager advances for her following books even after having had a bestselling book that stayed in the top five (mostly #1) in many categories and has a significant active following. Staying true to what she stands for as an Indigenous Taino Cubana who is an activist, cares deeply for her community, and believes in equality, she took a risk with her career as a writer and went public about her decision to leave her publisher. 
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>Rebekah Borucki, the founder of Row House, who also left the same publisher, came to Juliet, asking her if she would want to join Row House as their first author and be part of the RH council as a faith investor. Juliet received offers from other traditional publishers after the word of her leaving her former publisher was made public. She, however, decided that what Row House stood for was incredibly important and aligned with her values.
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>With her experience as a multiple bestselling and award-winning author and the many relationships she has built over the years as a community leader, she wanted to keep the door open for voices like hers that were being taken advantage of, appropriated from, and silenced. And so, she founded Spirit Bound Press. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>"We are more than a publisher; we are the community. Taking up space and filling shelves with more diverse and inclusive books in spirituality, magic, and wellness is part of my mission; I intend to make sure we reclaim our stories, medicine, wisdom, and magic. 
</div>
<div>- Juliet Diaz
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Mission (What we are doing differently as a publisher):</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Spirit Bound Press advocates for diversification in literature and publishing, creating an equitable publishing press that represents the values and diversity of the authors and communities we represent. While also honoring antiracist, decolonial, and inclusive principles. 
</div>
<div>​
</div>
<div>Spirit Bound Press offers equitable publishing deals (with a 40% royalty rate, which is about 4x the industry average). A team that coaches, supports, and helps authors through their writing journey while growing authentic communities aligned with their message, values, and beliefs. Developing and creating their book launch campaign and marketing plan with our in-house PR team. We also give SBP authors a free membership to our educational and social networking platform, Literary Craft Society. LCS houses courses, workshops, and events covering topics like decolonizing your writing, reclaiming your voice, growing your social media, promoting your book, how to write a bestselling novel, and more. LCS will be available to the public in late 2023
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>Spirit Bound Press is an imprint of Row House Publishing and holds the same values and mission.
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>"Big publishing is broken, but it doesn't need to be fixed. It needs to be disrupted and dismantled. What no longer works begs to be torn down, reimagined, revolutionized." - Row House Publishing.
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>We are that disruption and a new way to publish. Our leaders are authors who know how to put the author first, front and center. We believe in equity and activism and that books—and the culture around them—have the potential to transform the universal conversation around what it means to be human.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why we need funding and our vision: This is where we do our damn thing =)</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We need community support to make these goals and visions a reality. 
</div>
<div>With your help, Spirit Bound is:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div> ✖️Giving more contracts to authors who hold marginalized identities
</div>
<div>✖️Making those contracts fair, equitable, and transparent
</div>
<div>✖️Putting a stop to Cultural appropriation 
</div>
<div>✖️Offering scholarships to the Literary Craft Society (In-House learning/coaching platform)
</div>
<div>✖️Changing the way leadership looks, acts, and operates through diversity, equity, and inclusion-based practices
</div>
<div>✖️Offering free content and in-person experiences to our communities
</div>
<div>✖️Supporting small businesses like bookstores and shops
</div>
<div>✖️Creating a community of authors, writers, and readers who support each other
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And, of course, comes the cost of producing and publishing a book...
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✖️Printing costs, production costs, editors, cover designers, design and copy edit costs, sensitivity readers, marketing and promo, author events, legal, community events, free resources, and classes. ​
</div>
<div>​
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Publishing has a problem. A racism problem. An ableism problem. A heteronormative, transphobic problem. A problem with wildly inequitable and unfair acquisition practices and advance and royalty contracts that make it almost impossible for emerging voices to get heard.
</div>
<div> 
</div>
<div>Spirit Bound Press wants to be a solution.
</div>
<div>​
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every contribution to our GoFundMe is incredibly appreciated. Thank you for showing up and caring enough to make a difference in the publishing world. You are also making a difference in the communities we represent and are part of; for that, we are grateful.
</div>
