Project Possibilities
We are transforming our new space into a place of healing for our employees, for our guests, and for our community.
A PLACE OF TRANSFORMATION IS IN THE MAKING.
For nearly eight years we have been building a sustainable, scalable model to help women thrive in recovery. Now it’s time to grow!
Our new location expands our safe, healing-centered, restorative employment community, helping women continue their journey beyond sobriety.
It’s not much to look at now but we believe in what’s possible.
Turning this building into a place where women can build confidence, social capital, and success will be a years-long journey that begins now.
Take a look at our new home, The Castle building in Wappingers Falls, NY.
We moved here on May 1, 2023. We will be doing a few renovations to make it a beautiful space for our work of ending the addiction relapse cycle by employing women in recovery to make premium handbags from upcycled materials. Special thanks to Whalen Architecture who is guiding us through these early stages.
Then, over the next 12-18 months, we'll be making major renovations to transform this cement box into a beautiful, light-filled healing-centered community where you can join us in moving toward healing and community.
Imagine what's possible.

Donate today and help us bring this vision to life!
Our vision is to create a space that supports our work of being a healing-centered, restorative justice community helping women thrive on the other side of addiction.
To bring this vision to life, We are working with a wonderful design firm, MASS Design Group, whose core mission is creating productive, healing spaces that are not just environmentally sustainable, but regenerative.
We will be incorporating the principles of Grace Farms, Design for Freedom Initiative which is focused on eliminating forced labor and human trafficking from the construction industry. We are North America’s first Design for Freedom adaptive reuse project!
This project is a big undertaking - renovating a physical building and scaling an organization in order to create possibilities for more women. Transformation is what we do best. But we can never do it alone. We need YOU, our ambassadors of possibilities, to help us make this dream a reality.
