Our Stories

Taylor was admitted to the SJRC Texas Touchstone program in 2023 and remained there several months into 2024. During her time on the Touchstone campus, Taylor benefited from individual therapy, family therapy, life skills coaching, group therapy, equine therapy, and recreational services. Emotionally, Taylor made great strides. Taylor learned to trust adults on campus, she advocated for herself and her peers very well, and she rebuilt her connection with her mother. During Taylor’s stay at Touchstone, she started transitioning home, gradually. The visits started on campus, then moved to all day visits, and progressed to weekend visits. We checked in with Taylor’s mom and she shared this wonderful family update after having her daughter back home for the last year:
Jasmine and her 18 month old son came to us through extended foster care as Jasmine needed additional support. In fact, she specifically asked to live at SJRC Texas because it "feels like home." Our passionate team members in prevention have worked with Jasmine to assure her and her son are set up for success by completing the Parents as Teachers program. In addition, through her drive and motivation from our dedicated team, Jasmine has since graduated high school from our onsite charter school. We are so proud of her resiliency and will power to achieve success for her and her family!
