What happens to our clients after they finish at VIP? And what does it mean to finish at VIP? It means our clients are on a path to their recovery. That includes, having a stable home and loving supporters; it means hours of therapy under their belt to help them process and learn healthy coping skills; it means having a case manager be their guiding light as the entire family embarks on the road to #recovery. There is hope and joy once again in our collective hearts. VIP provides the stepping stones, one at a time, from immediate incident to processing, and finally, recovery and thriving. It brings our staff joy and humility to be such a guiding force for goodness every single day in our clients lives. Thank you for trusting us.

Every funder asks us how Covid has affected our population of clients. At the time of this survey, over 58% were not employed due to covid. VIP has been supporting these families since MARCH with rent, utility, food, and, house supplies so that they do not become homeless. Do your part too, support VIP. LINK IN BIO.

Help us reach our goal of 2000 toys by December 1 by donating now! Today! Right here! Link in bio!

At VIP, we provide all services necessary to help our clients go from simply surviving life to thriving in it. Our clinicians and staff go above and beyond that which is expected, and for that we are grateful!

Since March 2020 the Mayor’s office has funded Project Safe Haven for those women and children seeking a safe space to live. VIP was instrumental in the initial creation of this project and ensuring all participants are receiving the essential living items and services they desperately need. This was the FIRST time in the shelter system for 73.3% of participants.

It’s amazon prime day today and tomorrow! You could get lots of toys for less! Go to the link in our bio to get our toy drive wish list and please help us spread holiday cheer this year! #PLEASESHARE LINK IN BIO!
