The Center for Women and Children is a 30 bed, social model residential detoxification center for homeless women and children. The program provides a safe and supportive living environment for women to withdraw from alcohol and/or drugs. Women who enter the program are taking their first steps on the road to successful transition from substance abuse, addiction and homelessness. Therefore, the program seeks to provide women with the skills necessary to be successful in treatment and begin the process of moving out of homelessness. |
Freedom Garden Project
 |
In 2005-2006 Volunteers of America, Utah completed a three year collaborative project with the Junior League of Salt Lake entitled the Freedom Garden. The Freedom Garden is a horticultural therapy project designed to help women to acquire new skills and learn how to have fun without drugs or alcohol. This project supports the overall outcomes sought by the program because it encourages women to continue on to substance abuse treatment and supports the development of appropriate leisure skills, an important element in maintaining sobriety. |
