FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sun Street Centers Receives 2022 Program Project Grant from Community Foundation for San Benito County (CFSBC)
Sun Street Centers has been awarded a $5,000 grant from Community Foundation for San Benito County (CFSBC). This 2022 Program Project Grant will support the completion of a kitchen and laundry rehabilitation project at our Women’s Residential and Perinatal program in downtown Hollister. Currently, the kitchen and laundry areas are too small and/or oddly designed as is. Upgrading our kitchen and laundry facilities will allow us to better serve our residents and will truly have a large impact on their day-to-day lives. Our goal is to have the project completed by January 31, 2023.
Women’s Residential and Perinatal facility in Hollister was established in June 2018 and the goal of this program is to provide a supportive environment for single women and women with small children seeking a life free from the devastating effects of drug and alcohol addiction. Certified counselors and recovery participants incorporate the principles of Social Model recovery, which utilize a peer-oriented, mutual help system that views the participant as a student, not a patient. For fiscal year 2021-2022, the Women’s Residential program proudly served 57 women.
Since 1968, Sun Street Centers has been providing the most comprehensive and effective services for education, prevention and recovery of alcohol addiction and drug abuse in Monterey and San Benito Counties. Relying on a proven social model developed by founders Martin and Nancy Dodd, as well as the compassion and experience of an expert staff, Sun Street Centers welcome all individuals and families to hope, heal, share and thrive with a drug-free and alcohol-free lifestyle.
