Long-Term Support

Mindy* came into shelter several years ago to escape a domestic violence situation.  After going through an outpatient drug treatment program, Mindy found employment as a teaching assistant and went back to school to work on her degree in education.  Mindy completed her degree last year and now is working full time in a day care teaching pre-school.

Mindy received joint custody of her children after following the direction of the courts and working with Family Services.  She continues to work daily towards goals and positive influences for herself and her children.  She is part of our Continuing Support Program and still speaks with her case manager weekly.
