Gratitude in Action
At GIA, our mission is crystal clear: we're dedicated to fostering recovery and sober living, providing individuals a chance to achieve self-sufficiency. We firmly believe that financial constraints shouldn't stand in the way of anyone seeking a safe place to recover. Our community embodies hope and resilience, guiding individuals through chronic addiction, homelessness, and incarceration.
The impressive success rate of our sober living residents (far surpassing the standard 3-5%) speaks volumes about our unique approach, which centers around community. The transformative power of one person sharing their recovery journey with another has proven to be a powerful force for change.
In May 2021, we launched GIA Prosper, a program designed to empower low-income individuals in recovery. It focuses on four key elements: Prosper Life, Work, Home, and Health. With your support, we aim to equip individuals with the knowledge, skills, and experience needed to thrive independently.
We're thrilled about the ongoing impact we can make with your support. Each individual we guide on their journey to recovery and self-sufficiency is a testament to the strength of our community.
A heartfelt thank you to our community supporters. Your unwavering support has enabled us to touch countless lives, providing hope, dignity, and the opportunity for a better future.
Together, we're making a difference—one life at a time.
