Our Mission
History
Solutions for Women began in 2010 as a network of 10 women who sought additional therapeutic support via group and social interaction, after exiting the criminal justice system, behavioral modification treatment and/or traditional 12-step recovery model programs.
Founding members understood the need for formerly incarcerated women to reconnect socially and how group support can deter participants from relapsing back into criminal and risky behavior. Public, community empowerment groups for women began February 2011, every Tuesday in the Bayview community
Today, Solutions is a local 501c3 nonprofit agency in the San Francisco’s Bay Area. The group is committed to the empowerment of women as they transition (like the original founders had successfully done themselves), back into society after exiting incarceration, family shelters, domestic violence situations, and/or substance abuse/behavioral modification programs. Support groups are held throughout the month and community events are held throughout the year.
