Lawrence General and Holy Family Hospitals are among 150 recipients—including others in Haverhill and Methuen—awarded grants this month through the Cummings $30 Million Grants Program
The hospital will use a $90,000 grant over the next three years to develop a new program that specifically supports prenatal and postpartum education and monitoring for Merrimack Valley-area mothers and babies.
“This grant supports the important work our teams do to care for the unique needs of women in our community,” says Diana Richardson, interim president and CEO at Lawrence General and Holy Family Hospitals.
In Haverhill, Haverhill Common Ground Ministries was also awarded $75,000 and Hill View Montessori School, $150,000, to use over three years. Methuen’s On the Move will receive $30,000 to help young children from lower-income families improve their reading skills.
Lawrence General Director of Maternal Child Health Michelle Young added the hospital plans to use its grant to enhance its prenatal and postnatal education and monitoring program for obstetric patients in Greater Lawrence through a maternal health app, remote hypertension monitoring and lactation support.
