Mothers and families struggling with the emotional and psychological challenges of pregnancy and parenting will celebrate Hennepin Healthcare's groundbreaking of its Redleaf Center for Family Healing.

The Center is a $30 million endeavor initiated by a $10 million transformational gift from the Lynne & Andrew Redleaf Foundation and a $2.25 million donation from the Pohlad (News - Alert) family. The families will be honored at this event. The Center is projected to be completed in 2020.

One in seven new parents experience depression and other anxiety conditions - the most common complications of childbirth. The Redleaf Center for Family Healing will serve as a safe haven for struggling parents and families in need of help.

Through parent-child, integrative and resilience-promoting practices - and in partnership with communities most impacted by health inequities - the Redleaf Center will build parent capacity with a new model of care.

Support will be provided in the form of mental health and clinical services, a holistic nutrition and teaching kitchen, childcare services, integrative health services, and a family healing network.
