Sam & Roma Mercanti Foundation Pledges $500,000 to Expand Emergency Mental Health Service.
“We want to see real change. And for the first time since I started speaking openly about my journey with mental illness, I feel like our community is open to that change, too,” Samantha says. “People with mental illness deserve to be treated in the same way as those experiencing any other kind of illness. They deserve a safe, welcoming environment in which to seek and receive care. One that gives them hope and space to make their own decisions about what recovery looks like for them.”
