The Stone Foundation is a nonprofit organization founded by three local women—Alyssa Suess, Amanda Erickson, and Lindy Kirby—to provide outreach programs that promote mental and physical health within the community. Its mission is to support individuals by fostering education, awareness, and advocacy for youth and adults as they navigate key milestones in life.

As the Board of Directors of The Stone Foundation, our careers as physical therapists and a psychologist have been dedicated to serving others through healthcare. We are committed to ensuring equal opportunities for all, regardless of cultural or socio-economic status.

Every day, we see the challenges individuals face due to insurance limitations, especially when it comes to accessing essential adaptive medical equipment and assistive technology. These resources are often costly and not always covered, despite being critical for well-being and inclusion in the community.

We are creating programs and events through The Stone Foundation to help break financial barriers for families, easing the burden of their journey while providing hope that their loved ones will have a greater chance to reach their full potential.
