Crossroads Safehouse is anxiously awaiting completion of their new home in northern Colorado. Many more survivors of domestic violence will be afforded a safe environment in which to heal and grow as a result of this state-of-the-art renovation.

SIFC is committing resources to help plant gardens for children and adults to tend and enjoy. Members established 3 stock troughs in the children's garden and will plant "safe" plants there to inspire healthy recovery. Additional troughs are planned for an adult garden with hopes of planting "salad" gardens. Raised troughs allow those with disabilities to share in the joy of tilling.
SIFC members are enjoying this hands-on service opportunity and know that survivors of domestic violence will benefit as well.
2010-2011 SIFC President Carolyn Wade shares, "I am really excited about this project and how much it will be enjoyed by those women and children who pass through these gardens on their way to a better life."
