Holistic substance abuse and trauma Recovery Services for women and their young children.
Epiphany Center provides family-focused programs to address the traumatic stressors experienced by low-income women who face addiction, homelessness, and domestic violence. Our goal is to help families build healthier futures for themselves and their children.
“My son and I were clients at Epiphany from 2013-16. The agency gave my son and me a great foundation and a fighting chance. At Epiphany, I felt, for the first time in my life, the feeling of being home, the feeling of safety and stability.”
