Family peer support at Foundry Richmond

Amy is a parent to two young adults and has lived in Richmond for over 25 years. Amy was drawn to this work when she learned that sharing her own lived experience could help support other parents like her to know that they are not alone and to recognize their strength in supporting their children and youth struggling with their mental health.
