About us
We give hope to people affected by drugs and alcohol. We help women, children and families find the strength and opportunities to make choices that lead to change. Not just for themselves, but for their families, their friends and their communities. For all of us.
We treat the person, not just the problem. We don’t ‘fix’ or rescue anyone. Instead, we give women hope that things can be better, and the tools to make changes. We understand that people aren’t always straightforward – and that a tough start in life doesn’t have to mean a bad end. For over 25 years, we’ve worked with compassion and creativity to show just that.
