“Transform families by providing help, hope, and healing for mothers and their children to live responsible drug-free lives.” Created from the vision of a small group of women in the Junior League of Greater Fort Lauderdale in 1995, The Susan B. Anthony Recovery Center has grown from one group home, housing five mothers and six children, to a beautiful 5.5 acre campus in Pembroke Pines with the capacity to serve over sixty families. In addition, through satellite campuses, we are increasing our capacity to serve many more. Our ultimate goals are the removal of barriers for women entering addiction treatment, the prevention of foster care placement for their children, and an end to the cycle of addiction and abuse for families. Since we began in 1995, Susan B. Anthony Recovery Center has helped to reunify over 850 families and has provided the intensive services necessary to stop the cycle of family dysfunction and substance addiction for over 1500 children. One of the largest barriers to entry for mothers seeking treatment is child placement. At the center we focus on supporting both the mother and child(ren). We reduce or eliminate family risk factors by promoting a positive sense of self, delivering individual and group counseling services, providing peer group activities, maintaining well defined structure and offering many opportunities for support. Most importantly, we strive to stop the cycle of addiction by providing the most important protective factor of all, a healthy parent intervening on behalf of the child(ren) during their early development. For nearly 20 years we have done amazing work. Yet, prescription pain killers and heroin use is on the rise, despite the efforts of many. The negative effects to our community are compounded when the addict is a mother and her children are at risk of neglect and abuse. Often, children who are prenatally exposed to drugs or alcohol are also at a high risk for emotional and behavioral challenges. Without intervention, these children are much more likely to become addicts themselves, some in their early teens.

Heroes for the Homeless has continued its mission to help those who live outdoors without the assistance of organized shelter. Volunteers travel by car and on foot to minister to the most vulnerable of the homeless including those sleeping on the streets of Seattle in doorways, alleys, parks, at bus stops, inside and underneath trash receptacles, under viaducts, bridges, highway overpasses, in abandoned buildings, encampments, and inside makeshift homes constructed of cardboard. Heroes for the Homeless is committed to making a difference in their lives by offering food, a hot beverage, clothing, hygiene products, outdoor survival supplies, and information on how to get social service assistance. We support clients by providing them with basic needs while they endure the long wait to secure low-income/affordable housing. In doing this we also help them stay independent and out of the criminal justice system. Monthly outreach serves an average of 250 individuals and is funded through the generous contributions of its volunteer staff and other concerned citizens, a grant from the Turner Foundation of Washington, and assistance from community partners including the Salvation Army William Booth Center and Emergency Feeding Program of Seattle and King County.
