“Support The Vision” Campaign

Spain’s Residential Living’s Striving for Self-Sufficiency program is in place to assist residents in developing living skills to facilitate a positive return to their family and community while maintaining an alcohol/drug free lifestyle. In addition to transitional housing and employment assistance, each resident receives a personalized plan that may include access to Job Readiness training, GED Preparation classes, Parenting classes, Mental Health Counseling, HIV/AIDS/STD testing and education, 12-Step programs, community service projects, financial literacy and money management workshops, long-term mentoring and many other life skills-related programs.

Our vision is to expand the Spain’s Residential Living program by providing affording apartment living to residents that successful complete our Striving for Self Sufficiency Program. This vision will allow the recovering person an opportunity to maintain their recovery while still in a safe, drug free environment. The single apartment living will allow them to re-establish their credit, reunite with their families and continue their transition into becoming responsible, productive members of society. As residents transitional into SRL #2, their vacancies will create an opportunity for another women to enter the program.

The SUPPORT THE VISION Campaign will allow Spain’s Residential Living to secure a second facility that will accommodate 20-40 additional women. To accomplish this goal, we are exploring purchasing a new apartment building and renovating it to meet our needs.

The new facility will ideally have 20+ furnished studio apartments (2 residents per apartment) and have space for conducting meetings, onsite fitness center, laundry facilities and an indoor/outdoor recreation area for accommodating residents and their visitors.
