The room was full of hope, pride and tears on Wednesday, April 10, 2013, as eight women graduated from the Living in Freedom Today (LIFT) program at Coffee Creek Correctional Facility (CCCF) in Wilsonville. Staff and volunteers gathered to help the women celebrate their achievement. The theme for the graduation, chosen by the women, was “Rising from the Ashes Into Our Recovery.” LIFT is a six-month-long, 14-hours-a-day program serving women in the Alternative Incarceration Program. LIFT is provided by Pathfinders of Oregon at CCCF. The program combines alcohol and drug rehabilitation with cognitive behavioral programming to give women the skills to make positive, healthy choices when they reenter the community. LIFT stresses personal responsibility and accountability. In addition to classes, the program includes transition planning to ensure that each woman is fully prepared to succeed at reentry. Since its inception in 2008, more than 450 women have participated in LIFT. Read More. |
