About Us.We know that starting a life in recovery can feel overwhelming. We also know the beauty that lies on the other side of that fear. What we have found in recovery cannot be given, but we can show you how we did it. We believe that each person has their own journey in sobriety, and that can look very different from person to person. Each person has the right to choose their path to recovery, and each resident is held accountable to committing to that pathway. We are now able to see life through a new pair of glasses, walk down the street with our head held high, and live meaningful and fulfilling lives. We will pass along the tools that were passed along to us, and only ask that you pass them along to the next woman seeking help.

What We Do.
Our organization is multi-faceted. We start by providing a safe and supportive home for persons in recovery. Our homes provide:
We take things a step further by helping our residents reintegrate into society. There are multiple ways in which we help with this:
- A program with 4 phases. Each new phase brings about a little more freedom, and a little more responsibility. Each phase has an assigned curfew, number of meetings per week that each resident attends, and states whether a resident is allowed to take an overnight pass (pre-approved by our house managers)
- Organization for their medication and a medication audit once a week to ensure that they are taking them as prescribed. All of their medication is kept private and safe.
- House meetings every Sunday at 6:00 PM where the residents meet with their house manager to check in about the past week, count their medications, do their chore, and fellowship. The first Sunday of every month, both houses do a joint house meeting, have a potluck, and do a guided meditation together. It is important for us to build a culture of community, trust, and friendship.
We take things a step further by helping our residents reintegrate into society. There are multiple ways in which we help with this:
- Finding affordable health insurance and scheduling doctors appointments
- Helping them get their drivers license back (if possible)
- Providing them with a bus pass and helping to plan a bus route to and from work/meetings
- One reiki session per month per resident once they get to Phase 3
- Guiding them in learning to budget, save, manage their time effectively, and prioritize
- Help create a resume and obtain employment
- Exploring hobbies to feed their soul
