The Ruth Institute is a global interfaith coalition equipping Christians to defend the family and build a civilization of love. Founded by world-renowned author, speaker, and academic Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, the Ruth Institute’s Resource Center provides decades of research and educational tools to support individuals and families harmed by divorce, the hook-up culture, and other forms of family breakdown. The Ruth Institute believes that: Every person has the right to know his or her cultural heritage and genetic identity. Every child has a right to a relationship with their natural mother and father except for an unavoidable tragedy. The Ruth Institute rejects the idea that a child is a problem to solve if you don’t want one and an object to purchase if you do want one. The Ruth Institute has a dream that every child be welcomed into life in a loving home with their own mother and father, married to each other. The Ruth Institute upholds the ancient Christian teachings about marriage, family, and human sexuality. These teachings are today sometimes regarded as exclusively “Catholic.” But in fact, Judaism, and most Christian groups, historically taught many of the same things. The Ruth Institute works with individuals and groups, religious or otherwise, who share our views, in whole or in part, regardless of their positions on other issues.

RMHA is an award-winning, not-for-profit agency providing effective behavioral healthcare to approximately 2,000 individuals living in the Northwest Bronx, Upper Manhattan and Westchester County. RMHA was founded by local leaders led by The Society for Ethical Culture in 1959 in response to the overwhelming perceived need for community mental health care in the area. In our 57th year, RMHA continues to thrive on the principles on which it was built: quality and affordability, promoting community involvement and enthusiasm through local and city-wide partnerships. We maintain formal and informal links with other Bronx and citywide mental health, substance abuse and social service agencies including the Coalition of Behavioral Health Agencies, Inc. We continually seek new ways to remain meaningfully connected to our constituents and to keep pace with the growth and shifting needs of our vibrant and culturally diverse community. We have earned a reputation for excellent service and management and are well regarded as a field placement site for graduate students from professional training programs throughout Greater New York. RMHA received the Mental Health Agency Award from the New York City Department of Mental Health for exceptional performance. In 2009-2010, RMHA served more than 2,000 clients throughout the Bronx, including schools, churches and community centers.
