San Antonio Mother Who Beat Addiction Gives Back

WATCH – Each one, teach one –

Dec. 24, 2020 – Harper was one of the first mothers to move in and she is a success story. She eventually moved out with her son and now has a place of own and was recently hired by Crosspoint to work with the women going through the same thing she went through.

“Not only did she get what she got out of the program, but now, Tiffany, in her new role working at our Women’s Wellness Center, can help other women who also have experienced trauma, mental health and substance use issues,” Crosspoint President and CEO Dr. Kevin Downey said.

Harper said she is excited to be helping these mothers.

“I’m living proof. They could see, like, ‘Hey, she was homeless. She lived in Crosspoint. Now look at her. She works here. She has her so,’” Harper said. “I think that’s a big thing for people in recovery. You always think, ‘Oh, I can’t do it.’ But when you see other people that have done it, it’s like, ‘Hey, if they can do it, I can do it for sure.’”
