When a woman joins our program, she is committing to 6 months of transitional living as a resident in our home located in Burley, Idaho. She will follow the protocols of our program, Courage to Change. The program provides classes, support, accountability and structure in a safe, positive Christian environment so the women can heal and find restored hope.
Our goal is to stop the cycle of abuse and addiction by helping women experience a healthy relationship with God and others. When a woman is the best version of herself, she is able to participate fully in her family, church and community.
The structure and support we provide encourages the residents to not return to their former lifestyle, but rather, with the help of others, strive to live a new life and make new, healthy choices daily.

You Weren’t Made to Bury Your Pain, You Were Meant to Be Healed and Set Free
Many of us have buried trauma and hurts from our past. As these wounds force us into a life of silent pain, we get trapped into trying to be perfect, while experiencing haunting feelings of condemnation, anger, fear and shame.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. God can change us and bring freedom. “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future’” (Jeremiah 29:11).

Tammy discovered that we don’t need to be held prisoner to our past. She offers tools to help readers along their own journey to healing. Freedom is for everyone who wants it! Experience how beautiful life can be when God is welcomed in to heal life’s hurts.
