Tweetable Quotes

“Coming into Miriam’s House and just seeing this home where women can come with their children when they need help in recovery - when they have problematic substance abuse - get housing and then get recovery services, social services, childcare, healthcare, just anything you can think of that any mom would need. But, this is for women specifically in recovery, and it’s all over the place.” (04:27) (Brenda)

“Lisa and her husband sold Promises Treatment Centers and left the organization as well, but the program was started. And so, Patricia stepped in as a Board Member. Bryan Moeller went from being a Board Member to being Chairman at the time. And it was just for a long time just a dream of keeping this place open that they saw helps women. Even today, almost fifteen years later, there are no programs like Miriam’s House.” (06:32) (Brenda)

“There’s just all these safe spaces with trained staff to make sure that moms can visit their kids. When you’re separated from your children and you’re trying to get visitations, even just getting to the place where you can visit your children is a struggle.” (14:59) (Brenda)

“Miriam’s House you can make a donation to online at www.miriamshousela.org. You can do an online donation, but there’s also a mailing address there where you can mail a check. You can buy a ticket to Polo and join us on that beautiful sunny day if you’re on the West Side.” (23:03) (Brenda)
