25th Anniversary Celebration

Anna Marie has a lot to smile about. Prior to coming to Sojourner Truth House, her smile was hidden due to the shame of her past and her abuser's words that played over and over in her head.

Those negative words have now been silenced. Her confidence shows in her smile as she accepts her certificate for completing our entrepreneurial and business program training. She tells the onlookers: “If you had asked me a year ago whether I would be receiving this and would have come this far, I would have never imagined it. Stay encouraged and stick with the program.”

Thanks for telling your story of triumph, Anna Marie. Smile big!
