I used to live and work around the corner from the Homeless Prenatal Program. I remember walking by the building with the modest sign above the door in the Mission/Potrero area of San Francisco. I was carrying my own baby in my growing belly at the time and was so grateful that a program like theirs was there to care for women in some of life’s most unfortunate situations. I didn’t know founder and executive director Martha Ryan then, but I knew that what she was offering new families was precious.
We had the opportunity to collaborate with her recently on a production and were most excited to receive the news that Martha was just selected as a CNN Hero. Congratulations! You are an inspiration and truly a hero for all of us.
