Restored Pathways:
Domestic Violence Recovery Coaching Program
Restored Pathways: Domestic Violence Recovery Coaching provides compassionate, trauma-informed support to individuals and families impacted by domestic violence. This program is designed to help survivors regain stability, rebuild confidence, and move forward with dignity, safety, and purpose.
Our recovery coaches understand that leaving or surviving an abusive relationship is not a single event—it is a process. We meet participants where they are and walk alongside them as they navigate healing, decision-making, and access to critical resources.

EXCITING NEWS!! We have taken all three components of our beloved services....and created the
Extended Family Program
We are helping some of the most vulnerable in our community succeed by providing Supportive Transportation, Errands, and Senior Services to our older adults and those who need personalized assistance.
Below is a description of each component of our program...
Senior Services
Advocacy can take on many forms. Succeeding Despite Inc. can assist with the completion and submittal of forms, calling on behalf of a client, or arranging for services inside or outside of the home. For life-changing events such as a medical condition, arrangements may need to be made before coming home, and we can lend a hand there too!

Here's our take on Supportive Transportation...
Errand Services
On those days when you need something but do not want to leave the house, Suceeding Despite Inc. can help. With your authorization, we can pick up medication, groceries, or other items with one phone call. This service can be coupled as a package with our Supportive Transportation or Senior Services to give that "helping hand" that's greatly needed.
