    "New Choice Foundation has been an extremely instrumental part of my recovery and the team that is helping save my life and my family. They provided a place for me to live amongst other sober mothers while attending my outpatient substance abuse program. Sima has been very supportive and an asset throughout this journey. Her communication and advice has been helpful and appreciated.
    I am a mother of 2 young boys, a 2 year old and an 11 month old, currently working on reunification with them and for the first time in my life, getting proper help with my substance abuse. When I first arrived at the house in November, I had no idea what to expect. I was welcomed into a safe home with all the basic amenities, a beautiful yard, and even a dishwasher. There is a playroom, a pool, and a workstation with laptop, printer and internet service to do my necessary research and online meetings. The kitchen is equipped with a beautiful gas stove and every possible gadget to make healthy meals for my children and me, including a juicer, a panini press, blender, and much more.
    Coming from an in patient program and no place to live, this wonderful home has provided a roof safe from the elements and street life and a place to host my children during visits throughout my out-patient treatment and CWS case. The opportunity to stay here has helped give me a foundation to find employment, move forward in my recovery, progress in my CWS case and find more long term housing options.
    I will forever be grateful for New Choice Foundation and Sima for the much needed assistance they provided to help me get back on my feet and reacclimated into society. Thank you, New Choice Foundation.

    Sincerely,"
