A Message from our CEO

Dear Friend, Over the course of our 50th anniversary year, we have had the pleasure of connecting with former Gosnold patients who are now in long-term recovery. While their personal stories differ in many ways, there is one common thread that weaves them together, and that is the message of hope. Hope when they thought it was too late to get help. Hope when they lost everything and thought they could never get it back. Hope when they found themselves in a place so dark that they couldn’t imagine seeing light ever again.

Thanks to the support of donors like you, Gosnold has been able to provide hope to individuals and families suffering from behavioral health and substance use disorders for the past 50 years. Thanks to your generosity, we are equipped today with the resources to treat every patient that comes to the door, regardless of their ability to pay.

Yet, Gosnold is not immune to the significant hurdles that exist in the field of behavioral health across the nation. While the need for our services continues to soar, recruitment and retention of qualified staff is challenging, largely due to a substantial shortage of behavioral health professionals.

Additionally, current reimbursement rates are inadequate, and simply do not cover the cost of the lifesaving services that we provide.

In order to overcome these challenges and continue our work with individuals and families who are suffering, we request your help today. Will you please consider a year-end contribution to Gosnold?

Everyone deserves a chance at hope.

With gratitude,

Richard Curcuru, MSW, LICSW President and Chief Executive Officer
