Victoria shares, “While the work we do is challenging, what keeps me going is seeing people who work through some of the most difficult times in their lives. Being able to contribute to just a small part of their healing is incredibly gratifying and rewarding. The best part is helping people realize the strength they already have to overcome huge obstacles.”
