My Nonprofit Reviews

My name is Erin Graae and I'm 44 years old. I have been addicted to methamphetamine since the age of 12, in and out of prison for 15 years. My life had been out of control for so long and only prison walls kept me safe. I became desperate for a change. So desperate in fact that it felt like life or death to me. I started looking for help a year before I was to be released and all roads led me to Time For Change. I came here the day after I walked out from behind those prison walls and I had hope but I was still fearful that I wouldn't be able to make it. Today I am not fearful. I am actually empowered! All of the steps that I have been asked to take by the staff at Time For Change have had a purpose. I have been asked to give back to the community and it is a great feeling!! My self esteem has skyrocketed since I was urged to dress for success. I have started restoring my relationship with my kids and I am going to start looking for a job soon. This has all happened in a short amount of time and I have the staff at Time For Change and Kim Carter to thank for my transformation. I know I will still have struggles but I know I won't have to go through them alone and for that I am most grateful.
