What Clients Say About Us
I know I would not have been able to do any of the things I achieved without your help, and I am so appreciative to have had the opportunity to work with you.
I felt our case worker went way and beyond giving us support and helping us in areas to make us feel safe and was there to talk to when I needed her. Thank you
So comfortable and offered a safe space. The resources available to me that were recommended I had no idea about and they just handled it all for me while I continued to try and navigate through a difficult situation. I am so grateful for their help. I very like what they are helping me.
Thank you for listening and being there for me
I appreciate your work ; I like how passionate you are towards helping me with my situation and I feel satisfied with support . On behalf of my kids and I thank women WCSSI for the support we have been given.
