Finding Our Smiles
Dignified, donated dental care for Maine women and child domestic abuse survivors
This groundbreaking program provides cosmetic and critical care, restoring confidence, physical health, and smiles.
Dentists are inveterate fixers, we like to make a bad situation better. And the really fantastic thing about "Finding Our Smiles" is we are not only fixing a dental situation, but helping to put a whole life back together.
— Dr. Polly Nichols of Topsham Dental Arts
Get Out, Stay Out
As a hand-up for women survivors to get safe and get their children safe as well, and get on the road to freedom and independence, we provide payments for such critical items as shelter, car expenses, legal fees.
Healing Together
Through generous scholarships, we are able to offer our healing retreats on a sliding scale fee.
Our 2023 and 2024 retreats focused on memoir writing, led by Deborah Joy Corey and Deb Gould, at a Camden lakeside home and on Vinalhaven.
This fall, we are offering two day-long retreats, in Bar Harbor on October 5 and in Bath on October 6, that include self-defense, art and writing.

Gifts from the Heart
We mail out gift packets every day to our survivor sisters across Maine that include personally-inscribed books that were helpful during our journeys, and yellow writing journals, our rubber bracelet, and handmade jewelry and other crafts.
