Sunshine from Darkness is a nonprofit organization dedicated to mental health education, raising funds for local charities that provide mental health and addiction disorder services in our local community, and providing support for cutting-edge research. A subsidiary of the Lee and Bob Peterson Foundation, Sunshine From Darkness is working to build on the Petersons' legacy of caring, compassion and advocacy.

Mental health services in the State of Florida are seriously underfunded: Florida ranks 49th among states for mental health programs and access to mental health care. The behavioral health system in Sarasota County has been unable to meet the steadily increasing demand for services, with unmet needs rapidly increasing.

Mental health services save lives, while improving the outlook for those who are struggling with mental health challenges, which can be devastating. Sunshine From Darkness is committed to stopping the adverse outcomes and the economic cost of untreated mental illness while also reducing the stigma of mental health and addiction disorders.
