Why this work is personal, and how you can help.

Dear Friend,

Before the year ends, I want to personally invite you into a conversation.

We’ve just launched the first episode of the PRC Podcast, “Where Hope Grows,” and it’s the best way to get to know me—and why this work matters so deeply. In this candid conversation, I share my own story, what I’ve witnessed in my first months at PRC, and why stability, care, and community can change the course of a life.

This conversation isn’t just about me. It’s about the people PRC serves every day—individuals who come to PRC for the chance to feel safe, supported, and believed in.

As we close out the year, your generosity helps turn that chance into reality.

A year-end gift to PRC restores dignity, strengthens recovery, and reminds someone they are not alone. With your partnership, we will meet even more people where they are—and help them move forward.

If you’re able, I invite you to make a year-end gift today and help us make everything better, together.

With gratitude and hope,

         
Dr. Deborah Hawkes
Chief Executive Officer, PRC

P.S. Your year-end gift changes real lives. It creates stability, restores dignity, and reminds people that their community hasn’t given up on them. Thank you for being a part of this community and helping make everything better.
