It was the fall of 2021 when I called Christian Heritage. I had only been home for one year from my last treatment center, and I realized that I had no clue how to raise my kids. I had spent my teenage years in and out of out-of-home placements.
Â
CH was the last place I wanted to call because it had “Christian” in the name. I had experienced a lot of negative things in the church I was raised in.
Â
But I am so grateful I made that call!
Â
Today, I have support and encouragement from the whole Families Together team and one of the host homes my kids went to. In fact, we still text and grab coffee together when our crazy schedules allow.
Â
Today, I know that I am not doing this on my own and that I have the support I need to break generational trauma and give my kids a better foundation to be happy and productive adults.
Â
It truly takes a village, and I am grateful that CH is one part of my village.
