Please Support Our Efforts
DNS Capital is thrilled to again support Move for Kids, a 5k walk to raise money for Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. Our efforts will be directed to the Pritzker Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health with the first $25,000 raised designated to Little Ones, a comprehensive program for children birth to five years old.
Over the past four years, we have raised more than $283,000 for the Pritzker Department. With your generous support, we have accelerated the Department’s work to care for more children and families. With your help, the Pritzker Department has:
- Expanded its team of staff and licensed providers by 50% to care for more children and adolescents.
- Trained hundreds of community-based pediatricians to identify early signs of mental issues in young people, leading to earlier diagnosis and care.
- Launched medical center-wide suicide prevention education, research and clinical initiatives, including screenings, to provide support to children and youth who are suffering in silence.
- Established a dedicated Behavioral Health Observation Unit in the Emergency Department to better serve children and youth in crisis.
- Doubled research productivity to study and disseminate the most effective care models.
- Increased the pool of providers by training the next generation of psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers.
With your support, Lurie Children’s is leading the way to develop innovative care models to address the high volumes of children and youth needing mental and behavioral health services.
Here are just a few ways your donations could help:
$100 could fund therapeutic toys for Lurie Children’s Little Ones
$250 could provide financial relief to families by assisting with costs associated with hospital visits, meals, and clothing needs
$500 could cover costs to provide 10 individual treatment sessions for five patients.
$1,000 could cover costs for one year of care for a child – from the initial assessment to care plan development to online therapy.
$5,000 could fund a scholarship for one family to participate in group therapy with Little Ones to discuss issues such as toileting woes, sleeping concerns and general behavioral issues and anxiety in young children.
$10,000 could fund one year of parent group therapy for families insured by Medicaid.
$15,000 could provide seed funding for a member of the Pritzker Department to pursue research aimed at improving patient care.
$25,000 could support training of a post-doctoral fellow in psychology.
