Hennepin Healthcare is engaged in a comprehensive campaign to raise $10 million to support the construction and programming in a brand new offering called the Redleaf Center for Family Healing.

The Redleaf Center will serve pregnant and postpartum mothers, fathers, and families with children ages 0 – 5 through multi-generational mental health and parenting support, and mind-body-spirit approaches to healing.

Supported by a $10 million gift from the Lynne & Andrew Redleaf Foundation, Hennepin Healthcare unveiled plans in 2019 for the Redleaf Center that will offer not only mental health services but also childcare and a teaching kitchen. The idea is to create a sense of community for families, particularly mothers, whose depression and anxiety can be exacerbated by isolation when they bring their babies home.

The new Redleaf Center will be located in renovated space on HCMC’s campus, across from U.S. Bank Stadium, and is scheduled to open in early 2021.

Fundraising Update

To date, we have raised $3.5 million towards our $10 million goal. We need to raise an additional $6.5 million in both programmatic and capital funds before the Redleaf Center opens in early 2021.
