OUR MISSION
At The Nourished Nest Foundation, our mission is to provide access to mental health resources and support for all members of our community. We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live a healthy and fulfilling life, free from the stigma of mental illness.
Philadelphia Mental Health.
Mental health has been a topic that is underrepresented and under-discussed throughout the United States. One of the key variables that affect mental health is access to care - let’s be honest. Our program has been created and crafted for individuals in our community; the people you see walking by you, sitting next to you on SEPTA, your co-workers, your friends, and even YOU.
The Nourished Nest Foundation provides accessible community-based mental health outpatient care that is individualized and focused on creating a safe place for anyone who is seeking stability and balance within the Philadelphia area.
