TESTIMONIALS
I wanted to let you know how grateful and so thankful I am for you at a time when I was feeling so defeated you came into our lives and you were what Daisy needed. She connected with you and grew to trust you and you made the difference. I will always be grateful to you. Thank you for continuing to be a wonderful resource and person in Daisy’s life as she continues to grow and get stronger to be the amazing young lady she is. My gratitude to you is endless.
Love, Juli
SFCC helped me so much during a rough time. They reached for me and were nothing but kind and understood me. Not just understanding. The dogs were great and so is reinforcement. Five stars great customer service.

Dear Stepping Forward, thank you for having me in your program. Thank you for all of the skills you have taught me so that I can apply them to my life outside of Stepping Forward. You have taught me to be grateful for the things I have in my life, and how to calm down after tough moments in my day. You guys are so nice and kind.
Thank you SFCC.
Love, Colin G.
