One of the newest dads at Mercy nearly didn’t make it home. Just moments before discharge, Kevin had a stroke—and our nurses jumped into action. Today, he's back to thank the team who helped him hold his daughter again. We’re grateful to be part of stories like his! https://ow.ly/ibeV50W0Rbo

Everyone deserves a place to call home. That’s the heart behind McAuley Place in Bentonville, Arkansas—an affordable housing community rooted in compassion and built for belonging. What started as a bold vision from Sister Lisa Atkins, backed by Mercy’s commitment to land equity, is now becoming a reality for families in need of stability and hope. Named for Catherine McAuley, the founder of the Sisters of Mercy, this development carries forward her legacy of meeting people where they are and lifting them up. Check out this NBC News report.
