STWF is making a difference by continuing their efforts in helping the community and asking for your support in  joining the 2020 Fundraiser 

Your body does a good job internally of adapting to changes and stresses to keep everything in homeostasis. However, frequent and chronic stresses disrupt that system, a concept the medical community recognizes as the allostatic load. There is evidence that acute and chronic stress are significant risk factors for cardiovascular, immunological, and psychological health problems as well as impairments in the central nervous system. It is noted that 80% of all sickness is related to the allostatic and that  most Health and economic disparities due to race contribute to the allostatic load.

The allostatic load can predict what our health is and what it would be like in 3-5 years.  The higher that allostatic load the more damage it is doing to our bodies and the more we need to be concerned. 

STWF  is striving to make a family’s life easier by removing barriers that can help to reduce the allostatic load, simple stuff like addressing food insufficiency and food insecurity, providing space for health education and meal opportunities, reduce homelessness and provide temporary rest spots,  providing items for families that are not part of the US anti-poverty programs – like diapers and personal hygiene products, doing parent advocacy, and providing ways to help keep resiliency behavior  in check !

With joining to support  and giving towards  “Project 2020"   STWF can maintain the work it takes to decrease the allostatic load or increase resiliency to promote healing and good health in the community.   Every Year in Austin poverty levels are increasing by record numbers!
