The POLR House, a women’s sober-living house located in Thibodaux, La.—serving our local correctional facilities by providing those released from incarceration the best opportunity to transition successfully into the community as productive citizens.
Your support directly impacts lives by covering operational expenses for the POLR House right now and for future facilities with a goal to reach and restore 100 women and men every year.
I was released from jail 6 years ago, but the only place I had to go was the same toxic environment I was in.
I was living in a garage, in a toxic relationship where drugs were being used and sold right next to me. I was right back where I started.
I wanted better, so I listened to worship music and called on the name of Jesus. It was hard to stay on the right path in those surroundings. I prayed continuously for the Lord to pull me out of that situation. Not long after, He did.
He made a way for me to get to a safe place. This then became the desire of my heart. I wanted for other women who were coming out of jail to have a safe place to go where they could transition back into the real world and begin their road to recovery, where they could be FREE!! In August, by God’s provision, through POLR and the support of the community, we opened the doors to the POLR House where I stepped into my calling to be the house mother.
I am forever grateful for all that the Lord is doing in my life and through the Path of Life Recovery ministry.
A Letter from Kristi, POLR House Mom
