Because Of Your Help

The services of GSS staff…

can be remembered and appreciated for years and years. A former client sent this letter to a GSS staff member after meeting at a conference. It’s an outstanding example of how our programs can literally help someone transform their life…

 “… I just want to say how thankful I am for your help with getting me housing after my time in Henwood treatment Centre. Because of your help I was able to have a safe and sober environment that assisted me in getting my life back together.

 I am proud to say I am 6.5 years sober and now am working in the social work field. I was able to get back in contact with my father and build that relationship with him and we are closer than ever. And I was able to fix a lot of my relationships with other family members that I had ruined in my active addiction. 

 Now I am on my way to becoming a homeowner, I am also enrolled in Athabasca University working to obtain my Bachelors of Arts Psychology major. I am able to now own a nice vehicle and keep it. I am also a proud cat dad and an uncle to the best niece ever. 

 I truly believe without your housing supports I would not be where I am today. Thank you for everything and I'm glad I was able to run into you again.”
