The Moonsoon Fund Announces First Investment in Trauma Recovery Services of Arizona, an Investment in Economic Justice and Community Healing

Albuquerque, New Mexico — The Moonsoon Fund proudly announces its first investment in Trauma Recovery Services of Arizona (TRSAZ), founded by Diné matriarch Jordanna Saunders. TRSAZ provides culturally grounded, trauma-informed psychotherapy for Indigenous, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, and Two-Spirit communities. This investment delivers patient, flexible, and non-extractive financing designed to strengthen Indigenous matriarch-led businesses across the United States.

Led by Roanhorse Consulting, LLC (RCLLC), in partnership with Common Future, the Moonsoon Fund brings together Indigenous wisdom, lived experience, and frontline expertise in reparative impact investing. Together, we are building a restorative capital model that moves away from extractive finance and centers relationship, Rematriation, and the collective economic power of our communities.

The Moonsoon Fund is deeply honored that Trauma Recovery Services of Arizona, a social enterprise that participated in the 2024 Indigenous Femme Founders Hackathon and contributed to the development of the Rooted Relative Fund, is its first investment. TRSAZ is a values-aligned, revenue-generating organization rooted in service to people and culture.

Supporting a Growing, Values-Led Mental Health Enterprise

With this investment, TRSAZ will expand essential mental health services beyond Arizona.
Founder and CEO Jordanna Saunders shared:

“This year alone, we tripled our completed therapy sessions. As a service-based business, working capital is essential to sustain this growth and build pathways for new services. This investment helps us continue that momentum as we expand into pediatric mental-health care and lay the foundation to reach communities in other states.”

Paired with tailored technical assistance from Uptima Entrepreneur Cooperative—including holistic, culturally grounded education and business advising—and connection to RCLLC’s broader entrepreneurial support ecosystem, TRSAZ is well-positioned to expand its impact, grow its programming, and sustainably serve more people across the Southwest.

Saunders added:

“Being the first investment of the Moonsoon Fund is a pivotal moment for us. This support strengthens our ability to expand health equity in mental health and deepen our impact. As an Indigenous mother and business owner, I’ve seen firsthand the healing we bring to BIPOC communities, veterans, and other underserved groups. We believe mental health can be rooted in dignity, accessibility, and care.”

A New Chapter in Indigenous-Led Investing

“This investment represents the dedication and care essential for advancing community-led repair and healing that increases affordability, access, and power in the economy. Together, we’re investing in and at the intersection of health and wealth,” said Jaime Gloshay, Managing Director of Impact Investments at Common Future.

“Indigenous women founders are already running powerful, revenue-generating businesses despite an investment system never built for us. The Moonsoon Fund is here to change that,” said Vanessa Roanhorse, CEO of Roanhorse Consulting. “We are moving these founders to the next level not because they need to prove anything, but because the capital system needs to catch up to the future they’re already building.”
