Testimonials
“Coming here was an hour and a half away. But it was something I had to deal with in order to stay with my son. Because no foster home wanted me and my son together.”
Adolescent Residential Program, Client
“At the stone ceremony, the staff sits down as a team and picks the stone with a message that they believe fits us… And you know why they can do that? Because they actually pay attention to us. They pay attention to our growth.”
Adult Residential, Graduate
“The whole principle of the Center for Great Expectations and how they treat you and how they view addiction, I hope that that stands out and shines somewhere in this society because we need to bring light to this. It does work.”
