Tanisha was just 14 when she and her mom, Layla, were sleeping in their car.
When they found Vine Maple Place, everything began to change. They moved into a safe home and received job training, mentorship, and counseling.
At first, Tanisha was quiet and withdrawn in teen group. One evening, she handed her notebook to a trusted staff member, and inside were thoughts of self-harm. The team responded immediately, connecting her with onsite counseling and working closely with her and her mom to create a safety plan.
Every family deserves a safe place to heal and grow.
