My Story…
Hi everyone,
This year, I’m proud to be running the Falmouth Road Race for the very first time! I’m doing it in support of Gosnold Inc., an incredible organization that provides comprehensive mental health and addiction treatment services across Massachusetts. Their work is critical in helping individuals and families find stability, healing, and hope, and I’m honored to be raising funds on their behalf.
I’ve set a goal of raising $1,000 for Gosnold, and every donation, big or small, makes a meaningful difference.
What makes this race even more special for me is that it marks the beginning of my own running journey. Over the past two months, I’ve been training consistently, and I’m feeling both excited and nervous for race day. I’ve been inspired by my girlfriend, Leah Mahoney, a marathon runner herself, and I’m thrilled to follow in her footsteps, starting with this iconic 7-mile course through Falmouth.
I’m incredibly grateful for your support, whether through a donation or simply cheering me on. Thank you for being part of this experience and for helping me support a cause that truly matters.
Let’s do this!
– Ryan Pearl
Description
Founded in Falmouth, MA in 1972, Gosnold is a mission-driven, award-winning treatment facility that offers a wide range of comprehensive treatment options for behavioral health and substance use disorders. Our mission is to excel in addiction and mental health treatment, to serve individuals and families affected by these illnesses, and to promote lasting recovery. Driven by a strong commitment to addressing the most urgent needs of the communities we serve, we believe that all people deserve access to high quality, compassionate care, regardless of their economic or social condition.
Some of our current programs and services include inpatient detoxification, residential rehabilitation programs, long-term sober living residences, partial hospital programs, intensive outpatient programs, individual, couples and family counseling, recovery coaching, emergency room navigation and family education/support programs. Each program is tailored to the patient’s individual needs.
While all health care providers struggle with insurance reimbursement rates, the challenge is particularly hard for nonprofit, mission-driven treatment centers like Gosnold. This is largely because of our steadfast commitment to treating all patients, regardless of their ability to pay. Many of our patients are uninsured or have insurance with low-reimbursing assistance benefits. While private and for-profit providers often turn away patients with plans that don't reimburse well, Gosnold strives to work with everyone, and this can present a significant financial challenge.
