Testimonials and Reviews
Read what our community members are saying about the impact of CYWA’s programs.
The Samara House helped me when I was pregnant with my daughter and didn’t know what to do. They showed love and compassion. I had my daughter while there and now have a place of my own. I recommend the CYWA to anyone who needs help or assistance.
The entire staff from top to bottom was very kind and caring. They work to their max capabilities to aide women and their children. They each have a lot of compassion and consideration.
Family oriented facility with genuine care, help & compassionate for everyone that comes through the doors. Spreading the love from one to another & all that is expected in return is to pay that same generosity forward.
