Hear Their Stories
“I was a resident of MiraVia, and I cannot speak highly enough of how amazing the program is. They welcomed me and my daughter in with open arms, love, care, hope and showed me so much joy. I am forever grateful for the support they gave me while I continued my education. They truly were the start to the foundation I needed to get on my feet and to be the best mom I could be to my sweet baby girl. God truly blessed me with MiraVia, and I can’t thank Him and MiraVia enough for being there in such a time of need. The moms, babies, and staff have become like a second family that I am so grateful for and still stay in contact with them. They supported me when I needed them most, and I will continue to support this organization because what they do for the moms and babies were and are a huge blessing.”

“MiraVia was like a miracle. I didn’t believe that this was possible or even existed. The best part about being at MiraVia is they gave me the opportunity to get on my feet. The opportunity to find a job, go back to school, to be able to have that one-on-one time with my children. MiraVia has been nothing short of amazing! MiraVia saved my life when I had nobody or nothing. I would rate 100 stars if I could. Still to this day, the staff keeps in contact with me and checks on my babies. WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL PLACE!”
