“Mary’s Shelter is more than just a shelter, it’s a place where people care about you and help you and support you. I didn’t like it at first, I did not want to get up every morning and make my bed. I did not want to go to school. But I had a baby coming and I had to take care of more than just me. I finally let go and I started following the program. I am so happy I did. I learned a lot and I have so much more then I came here with.”
