A Former Sweetser Client Gives Thanks

I was a 2002 resident at the Sweeter Family Focus Program in Saco and then a student at the Saco School for a year and a half.

Sweetser saved my life, saved my family, and led us to bigger and better things. Sweetser helped me become the person I was born and raised to be.

What I learned at Sweetser I will carry all the days of my life and apply them to be successful.

I feel blessed to have been given the opportunity to attend Sweetser and have so many great memories, lessons and visions.

Now my family will leave Maine after 17 years and return to our home state.

I just wanted to put a letter out that said.... Sweetser helped me so much and how thankful I am for your programs.

It angers me to see so many state cuts in health and human services. Sweetser is worth every dime because you're saving lives, saving kids from being in trouble and leading them to be successful in a way that benefits each individual. Sweetser had the greatest impact in my life of any program or services.

My family says thank you so much, you helped us so much and our time at Sweetser will be treasured in our hearts forever.

I am now 20, enrolled in college and a professional photographer looking to become a psychiatric social worker.
