Read MoreWhen I was a little girl, I wanted to be a reporter when I grew up. I loved roller skating with friends and playing in my neighborhood until the streetlights came on.

It was a terrible custody battle, and the loss of my family dynamic left me heartbroken and rebellious.

Read MoreOn a typical day you’ll see men volunteering in any number of ways. They tend to the landscape, mow, mulch, and weed-eat through the summer. They paint and repair what we have chipped and broken. They assemble, move, and reassemble a lot of our furniture.
Read MoreI now sit behind the desk in our front office, much different from my position in the two years overseas. I am no longer in direct-care, but something that remains a constant theme is having an eye for the one. The one person that God places in your path to demonstrate His love and kindness.

I learned how to love myself, how to be myself and be okay with me. The feeling when you come through the gates at The WellHouse, it’s amazing. You feel the love. I remember clearly the first day I got there, because I felt such peace. I had never felt anything like it. The view was beautiful. For the first time in a long time, I didn’t have to run. I didn’t have to do anything. I was safe. You can just feel the healing begin.”
