OUR SINGULAR FOCUS

Germaine Lawrence only works with adolescent girls ages 10 - 18. We have the experience and expertise needed to respond successfully to the specialized problems that these young women face.

The girls at Germaine Lawrence come to us with a variety of serious emotional and behavioral issues. Some are struggling with substance abuse issues or eating disorders. Many of the girls have attempted suicide at least once or have injured themselves. Other girls chronically run away.

Some of the girls have already been hospitalized multiple times or have been in five or more foster homes, none of which have been successful placements. All of these young women need special treatment to help them feel safe and to re-establish their sense of self-worth.

Germaine Lawrence is the only alternative for many of these girls. They need a place where they can begin again, a place that believes in their ability to succeed, and a place that will provide another chance. They need a place like Germaine Lawrence.
