On November 4, St. Ann's Center hosted "In Her Words" - a short film, panel discussion, and reception held to recognize Homelessness Awareness Month. Over 125 attendees joined us at the Nolan Center at Georgetown Visitation Preparatory School - a warm, inviting space just perfect for our gathering. We hope you enjoy these snapshots from a truly special evening for the St. Ann’s Center community."In Her Words" - A Special Night for St. Ann's Center
Quite simply, you help St. Ann’s change young lives. Tonight, 51 women and children have a safe and sound place to call home – including the eight women and their six children who live in our Grace House Teen Mother-Baby Program. I am so thankful, and proud, of the work you empower. Thank you!Sister Nancy's Note: Four Ways You Help Change Lives
The families who come to St. Ann’s have faced real challenges in their young lives. These experiences can be overwhelming and isolating. Thankfully, you make St. Ann’s a place where – over time, with love and support – that sense of isolation can begin to dissipate, freeing women and their children to forge new relationships that add hopeful dimensions to their lives.Sister Nancy's Note: The Ways You Make a Difference
