How it began:  While I was working at a shelter, I housed a woman that was going through suspected meth psychosis.  She was someone who fell through the cracks of the system and was so vulnerable.  I let her stay at the shelter a few days longer than “policy” permitted. It was incredible how the agency came down on me.  I resigned respectfully and decided that how women were being treated was simply unacceptable.  I bought a hotel a few months later and plan to buy many more.  I plan to convert them to safe houses for women and their children.  Never to be confused with a traditional shelter but more of a sanctuary where healing is promoted.  I want to help build extremely supportive and strong communities.
