This program represents a significant milestone as our organization’s first dedicated female recovery facility.
Through strategic partnerships with Bexar County and Chrysalis Ministries, women gain access to support services including workforce development, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and ongoing recovery support. Our recovery housing is designed to foster independence and self-sufficiency.
