Testimonials “I can’t tell you how it makes me feel to again see my child laugh and smile. She is blossoming into the wonderful young woman she is, and I owe it all to you and your program staff. Thank you for giving my child and my family our lives back.” – Gina, Sarah’s mom “I have always been scared about growing up and being all on my own. I never really had anyone to teach me how to do that before. But the groups at Great Circle are making me feel less scared. I’m learning a lot about how to take care of myself and it’s nice to be able to talk about everything with people who really care.” - Taylor “Through these parenting groups, I’ve gained the knowledge and skills to be a nurturing father to my daughter. The program has truly been a blessing and still helps me today.” – Mitchell, Mia’s Dad
