CHICAGO - Stratosphere Networks has announced it will be one of the sponsors of Trilogy Behavioral Healthcare's 2019 With Heart & Compassion Gala. The event will take place on Friday, September 20 from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Venue West in Chicago.

Trilogy's annual benefit - previously called the Spring Into Recovery Gala - is a celebration of recovery that helps to promote awareness and reduce the stigma surrounding mental illness. Nearly 300 Chicago business and civic leaders - along with other Trilogy supporters - are expected to attend this year's event. All proceeds will go toward ensuring low-income individuals throughout the city who otherwise don't have access to high-quality care receive the treatment they need.

Trilogy is a community mental health organization that has served Chicago area residents for almost 50 years by providing much-needed care for those living with mental illness. Last year, the care provider assisted more than 2,500 Medicaid-eligible people with psychiatric and psychological therapies, integrated mental and physical healthcare programs, and substance use recovery.

"We're thrilled to be one of the sponsors of Trilogy's With Heart & Compassion Gala," said Steve Melchiorre, CEO of Stratosphere Networks. "Our team fully supports Trilogy's mission to help people affected by mental illness and improve quality of life for some of our community's most valuable members."

The Chicago-based IT managed service provider focuses on delivering best-in-class technology solutions to businesses in all industries. In addition to managed IT services, Stratosphere offers managed cybersecurity solutions, serves to empower internal IT teams, and cloud consulting services.
