“I would like to let you know how special CCS was with our daughter through very rough times.  As parents we hope to help our children whenever they need us.  Sometimes, they don’t want our help. That’s where CCS was such a godsend.  We are so grateful that you helped get our precious daughter on the right track.”

“I had a lot of dark days and tears not knowing what I was going to do. My young son and I had no place to live. With your support, food, clothes and shelter, I have worked hard to move to your housing program and employment. Without the help of CHS, I would not have healed.”
