RECOVERY IS A
JOURNEY
NOT A DESTINATION
Helping Your Sisters and Wives Get The Lives They Deserve
We plan to offer the only combo solution for residential housing and holistic programs in Iowa.
​
The women we will help will prosper after incarceration – and it’s all because of you.
We have helped Countless women to date!
And once we obtain a residential setting, every penny of your generosity increases that number every day.
Recovery is a journey, not a destination.
At Crossroads of Iowa, we believe in giving women the second chance at life everyone deserves.
We plan to provide our signature two-punch approach.
Residential environments combined with holistic programs – focused on mental wellness and the return to everyday life.
Many women fresh out of jail and prison have no one to turn to, nowhere to go.
We plan to provide a community and living space for these women as they get back on their feet.
Everyone’s recovery looks different,
What works for one person might not work for the next.
​
Which is why we offer a wide array of classes aimed at ending drug-related recidivism and relapse for women.
Your donations enable us to help the mothers and daughters of our community.
And for that, we are endlessly grateful for you.

Testimonials:
"Finding My Voice" not only taught me healthy coping skills, but helped inspire me to preserve. The Crossroads of Iowa staff were amazing, and they really listened to me, showing me that they really care."
Kimberly
"Before taking Ruth's classes, I had lost myself. Her classes really helped me find myself. I wouldn't be the strong woman I am today, without her help" Wendy
"Finding My Voice" classes changed my life. Derek
"These classes are such an amazing support for women, by women. As women, we tend to be catty, 'clicky", and mean. Instead, we should build each other up, and give compliments, not put downs. These classes definitely give me the right kind of support." Cynthia
