I just wanted to give an appreciation post, Northern Children Services helped me and my daughters tremendously over the past 2 years everything I needed for my daughters they helped me get, I felt safe and a relief from… escaping my situation I once was in, during times of my postpartum depression and everything I’ve been through it was always someone there to give me kind words, a listening ear. Me and my children needs always was met, they helped me receive everything back that I have lost I even started going to college while living in Northern. The neighborhood was great for me and my daughters nice people around the area, calm quiet place. I recommended a few of my friends who are in the same situation I was once in. My experience was great and I can’t be more thankful for them helping me and my daughters.
The worse, don’t waste your time!!!!
