Testimonial
Making the decision to send Mitchell to Turning Winds has been the hardest thing I have ever done. It has been stressful, frustrating, and every other emotion you can think of. But in my heart I loved my son so much I knew that I needed to do something more then I was capable of doing on my own... The healing that has taking place in his heart is so amazing to see. Just to see where he is right now and to see the steps that he has taken and the things that he has accomplished has made this sacrifice worth while.
