Alumna voice
"This place saved my life."
"If it wasn't for this place I would not be alive today."
In their words
What the women tell us
"I felt respected."
"They saved my life. Their high standards elevated my self worth."
"Like a home and family."
"It’s like a home & family where everyone is supporting & learning together."
"Part of every decision."
"You are treated with love and respect and made to feel like you are 100% part of the decision-making process regarding your treatment. It is not an ‘institution.’"
"Calm, and normal again."
"I felt respected… made me feel calm and ‘normal’ again."
"Sisterhood."
