Family Advocacy Creating Education and Services

FACES is a non-profit corporation founded by families of loved ones with brain disorders such as bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, depression and schizoaffective disorder. The mission of FACES is to serve and support families by helping to dissolve the stigma surrounding mental illness. Our goals are to educate the public, provide educational resources, advocate for access to services, and create a model residential center.

FACES Donor Contributions

January 1, 2011 - December 14, 2011

The generous support that you have provided FACES over the past year has made it possible for us to expand our support into the community. A few of the services which you have helped provide include: more frequent Community Forums with guest speakers from many specialist in the mental health field, support to the recovering apartment residents at Gateway Homes as they prepare to move back into the community, donations to support the healthy eating program at the Friends 4 Recovery Center, and funds to help maintain the FACES center whose use is so generously donated by St. Marks Church. We are able to continue our Support Groups on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays each month providing support and hope to families whose loved ones are dealing with brain disorders as well as provide resources and information in the newsletter and on our website. Won’t you consider making a year end tax deductible donation to help FACES to continue our work? Consider making your gift in honor of or in memory of a loved one. Even a small gift will enable FACES to greatly impact the lives of many more Richmond area families touched by mental illness.

FACES is going Green.

Everyone is concerned with the environment and the financial situation. In order to do our part and still continue our mission of education and support to families FACES will be making some changes to the method of delivering the newsletter. We will be posting all articles on our web site (facesva.org) at the first of each month. There are also direct links posted on this site for additional information which you may find helpful. Another option would be to receive an email copy of the newsletter. We will continue to mail the newsletter each month to anyone who wishes to make that selection.

FACES is dedicated to providing the services that families need in order to deal with their loved ones and now we will be doing it Green.
