TESTIMONIALS

Her services have successfully helped transform the lives of many of the young people who have committed offenses that have been filed in my Court. My Court has worked with Ms. Terrell's P.E.A.C.E. program for over two years now. This program has had enormous success in improving juvenile attitudes, school attendance and parent/child relationships.

It was refreshing to connect with other parents who have some of the same struggles and issues in raising their children. The children connected with Ms. Terrell as if they had known her all of their lives? It is unbelievable that such wonderful therapy can only be attained through the school system in the midst of controversy and punishment instead of reward and personal growth and development.

The judge mandated that my son and I attend the P.E.A.C.E. Program I walked away with a clearer understanding of what it means to listen and give my son a chance to express himself without interrupting. My son has learned different ways to combat anger... It has helped to establish and keep the lines of communication open for us. It has also brought trust and loyalty to the forefront.

Fresh Spirit feels more like an extension of my family. I felt truly accepted in spite of my weaknesses and shortcomings, we felt the love of God present in each session. I wish it were possible for every hurting woman to experience what I did through your program and regain a sense of hope?you and Fresh Spirit took a woman who saw no hope for the future and developed me into a healed woman of accomplishment who is seeing her dreams realized day by day.
