Halloween 2025

Genesis house had the best time tonight at our parking lot party trunk or treat and at the track. We saw the best costumes and enjoyed all the laughs.
We love our little Hallmark town!

GH's annual pumpkin party was a huge success!
A massive thank you to the Stumbler family for their generous donation of pumpkins again this year.
Our parking lot party was moved into the creepy basement due to the weather. The space came with its own cobwebs but provided the perfect environment for a soup spread and messy activity.
We had our class on pumpkins and addiction, ate till we popped and prepped all of our pumpkins for Halloween night.
The ladies had a blast. Once again, we had a handful that had never carved a pumpkin before. And we had several graduates return for another year of fun and bring their kiddos with them.
Our family continues to grow and ripple into the community and it is so beautiful!
If you're wondering how the ladies are like pumpkins keep reading. Otherwise we hope to see you and your ghouls and goblins on Halloween night. We will have at gh3 and at the track!

Addicts in recovery are a lot like this activity. They're unique and covered in scars (inside and out) but they have an opportunity to shine bright with a little hard work and a plan that is catered to their unique needs.
No two pumpkins are identical. They're all unique in their own way. Some pumpkins have bruises and scars that tell a story; others look perfect on the outside but have insides that are rotting and no good. Everybody in recovery is different. Different shapes, sizes and some have scars and blemishes- just like pumpkins.
Pumpkins from the field are often dirty and need a good rinse before you can get started. Just like when you come into recovery you've got to wash off all the dirt and muck to even be able to assess the possibilities.
Next, you have to set your sights on planning. You determine what you want to make and what the best approach is. Some want to make an elaborate design, others want to carve something that was meaningful to them, and then some want to carve a simple and traditional jack-o-lantern.
You must determine the best course of action to meet your goals and then begin the hard work. At first it will be uncomfortable as you dig your hands into the cold dark pumpkins to pull out all the yuckies.The inside is full of years of built up garbage. You must remove all the seeds of doubt, fear, self hate, etc.
Eventually, you have to take that first leap and make a cut. It's scary, maybe a little overwhelming. You're afraid you'll mess it up. And maybe you do, and then you have to work on a new plan to turn your “ooops” into a beautiful mistake.
Finally, when your hard work is complete you get to show off the rewards of your efforts and watch the light shine bright, highlighting your beautiful journey.

I spent the day working on a grant report and shared our most recent data with my program director. We were both giddy.

It's easy to lose sight of our achievements when faced with daily obstacles. However, highlighting our successes is essential to showcasing the impact of our mission and securing ongoing support.

Since opening our doors in 2020 we have found:

36% of the women that enter our doors will go on to graduate

89% of our graduates are free from new arrest charges and in most cases have successfully completed probation or DCS cases, or are well on their way to complete

28 children have been reunited with their parents

10 babies have been born to sober mothers

Today we celebrate! 🥳

Also, today we had 10 graduates stop in randomly throughout the day and interrupt our work day to have a chat, grab a hug or chill on the couch just because they wanted to.

While we see it by them popping in the door sometimes it just helps for us to see it on paper.

Tonight we welcomed our 67th and 68th graduates.
Congratulations Stephanie and Heather.
We're so proud of your tenacity and perseverance and we cannot wait to see what you choose to do in your next steps.
Welcome to the graduate club!

Year five camping was a success!
We played games, did team building activities, sang karaoke, danced, laughed, chilled in hammocks and around fires, had meetings and meditations, took naps and walks, swam and so much more.
Grateful for the opportunity to be present with these ladies and love them back to life.
These women work hard each day at rebuilding their lives, they deserve to have a few days to goof off and enjoy the little things.
As always we had graduates return to spend the weekend with us and a few who have not missed a camp out yet.
Our family continues to grow and weekends like these, with everyone together, push the staff to keep going on hard days because these moments are proof that we're doing something right.

I got caught up looking in all of the memories of our previous camping trips. Man they make me smile.
5 years ago I embarked on a journey with just the bed of my truck loaded and 14 women. The following year it was the bed of my truck in the back of an SUV and 25 women.
Year 3 I moved up to a truck and a trailer and 40 women.
Last year I used a truck and a trailer and I had 45 women.
This morning I'm loading up with my SUV and an enclosed trailer and have a headcount of over 50 that will be joining us this weekend.
All the food has been prepped. All the tents have been packed. Headed off to get gas for the generator and ice for the coolers and then we embark.
The camp trip continues to be a lot of effort and a lot of work. But taking these women off grid for a few days to work on team building resting and resetting is priceless.
Please pray for us to have great weather and wonderful fellowship this weekend.

Last night we were honored to host the annual overdose awareness event at the fairgrounds with Mercy Street.
Each year the event continues to grow and exceed our expectations.
We are so incredibly grateful for Harry's Taphouse and Kitchen and their generous donation of 350 incredible meals And Sweet Pea Catering Company LLC for providing a huge spread of desserts. While we hate to run out of food, we are so excited that over 350 people came out last night!
In addition to the food donations, we are so grateful for the sound guy, the band, the phenomenal speaker and all of the community members that helped to set up and tear down the space for the event.
We could not do this without all the behind the scenes helpers.
We are grateful for the community members that continue to come out to support those in recovery, pray for those still suffering, honor those that are no longer with us and learn about education, treatment and prevention resources in our community.
The Harrison County coroner was able to share statistics and the trend that overdose deaths are way down in 2025. Last year in Harrison County there were 12 deaths due to overdose. As of yesterday there have only been four this year. He also shared that EMS calls to respond to potential overdose or complications with drugs and alcohol is down 44% since 2023. Lastly, he shared with us that due to the opioid settlement funds, over $250,000 has been returned to the community this year to help continue to lower overdose rates and provide services for those are ready to get better.
From everything that he told us, we are on the right track Harrison County!
We will continue to work to erase the stigma surrounding substance use and mental health issues and we will remind you that we do recover!

We are so grateful to Backroads Market and all of the community for making our paint your partner night possible.
We started off the evening with a Thanksgiving dinner in August using up our dare-to-Care donations.
Then we had a picnic outside and enjoyed a beautiful walk down the square.
While some of the ladies were apprehensive nervous and even a little fearful to be painting another person, and halfway through the project they became overwhelmed. But despite the heavy feelings, laughter still rang out throughout the room.
What a beautiful reminder that coming into recovery is scary and overwhelming and that we're afraid of disappointing people that we care about. But how much fun it can be if we just push ourselves out of our comfort zone and give it a try.
Thank you Corydon for giving us an opportunity to try new and hard things.
We crushed it! (We even have a balloon to prove it)
