Our Impact
Our Model Works!
Six years ago, Unshattered formed a holistic community of loving support to encourage women to continue their journey of sobriety. We offer full time employment and a like-minded community for women in recovery, where they can express their value and purpose through work and commit to ongoing personal and professional development.
