SPARKS’ mission is to provide mothers and families who are suffering unnecessary pain with the proper care they deserve. The organization was created to provide comprehensive, integrated services to meet the educational, psycho-social and psychiatric needs of women suffering from a host of issues ranging from Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) to Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PDD), to Postpartum Depression (PPD).
Our practice guidelines provide for medical consultation, collaboration and referral, and linkages with health and human services. SPARKS’ Confidential Crisis Hotline is operated by full-time, professionally-trained counselors. SPARKS has countless community members who themselves have overcome PPD, now trained as volunteer mentors. Their personal experiences enable them to empathize and understand, providing the necessary tools to handle the most challenging circumstances. Additionally, our ‘Mom Support Teleconference Groups’ and parenting classes provide immediate relief and support to struggling mothers and their families.
Furthermore, SPARKS is tapping into many established community resources. We are utilizing the efforts of non-profit emergency medical support agencies and local volunteers to provide in-home services such as food, housework help, respite and childcare. To date, over 2,760 families have been helped, peace and stability being restored into their homes. Thanks to SPARKS, these mothers can once again experience the joys of motherhood, with love and warmth permeating their home.
