"Most of my years were spent in Louisiana, where I was neglected by my mom and verbally abused by my dad. I remember God telling me to take a big leap of faith, and I did. I am grateful to be in a program with an amazing team and my young sisters in Christ. I want to share our program’s house verse that God put on my heart for those in need and for the next step in my journey. Jeremiah 29:11, 'For I know the plans that I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.'" -Mykia, CityTeam Youth Collective Graduate 👩🎓 #journeys #nextchapter #journeyoflife #celebratefreedom #graduation

👨🍳 At CityTeam's Hope Cafe, we create a restaurant-style dining experience every month, giving our guests the rare joy of choosing their meal—a luxury many of us take for granted. This month's special dinner featured a three-course meal with entrée options of grilled salmon, smoked beef tri-tip, or grilled baby back ribs. 🤝 A huge thank you to Central Christian Church for partnering with us to serve our guests with dignity and provide hope. Your continued support is a true blessing! 👀 Want to make a difference in your community? Join us at cityteam.org/volunteer

“If life were fair, I’d be dead or serving life instead of standing before you tonight. CityTeam welcomed and accepted me as I was. All the staff, counselors, and fellow brothers have generously played a role in assisting me on this journey. They helped me manage my anger and set boundaries. They not only helped me maintain healthy relationships but also taught me how to identify and get rid of unhealthy ones. It's been 308 days clean and sober, which is my longest period of sobriety to date and the first time I fully completed a program from start to finish. No cheating, no relapses, weekends, and holidays included. Thank you CityTeam.” -Manny, CityTeam San Jose Graduate 🎓 #journeys #nextchapter #sobrietyjourney #sobermotivation #journeyoflife #celebratefreedom

🏈 We had an incredible day at the San Francisco 49ers training camp! CityTeam was invited to bring residents of our men's and women's programs to watch the players practice and run plays up close 🎉 Multiple players came over to shake hands, take pictures, and sign autographs! Our residents left with smiles and unforgettable memories. One resident said, "I never could have got this chance in my addiction." Thank you, 49ers, for this amazing opportunity! 🙌❤️ #FTTB #Niners #GoNiners #NinerEmpire #49erFaithful #49ersNation #RedAndGold #NinerGang #nonprofit

"6 years ago, I was in complete denial. I turned into someone I thought I would never become. I had been incarcerated countless times and hated my life. After having my children, I was unable to be the loving mother that my children needed. I asked the judge if I could go to a long-term program. I knew that I could not trust my own self-sufficiency to succeed. I got the chance to join CityTeam House of Grace. The spiritual component of the program is what changed me the most. Handing my will over to God was the best thing I could do. It has changed every single aspect of my life. Having my case manager to guide me, I learned how to be completely transparent in my journey. Thank you CityTeam!" -Susan, CityTeam House of Grace Graduate 🎓 #journeys #journeyoflife #nextchapter #graduates #celebratelife #celebratesuccess

“When I first arrived at CityTeam, I was scared but also felt a sense of peace. It was hard to explain but I know that God had guided me through my troubled past and had led me to a place where I had a chance at a better life... One month after coming to CityTeam, I was baptized at Central Christian Church. That was one of the best feelings I’ve had in my life. I know that my wife was watching from Heaven.” -Michael, CityTeam San Jose Graduate 🎓 #journeys #nextchapter #sobrietyjourney #sobermotivation #journeyoflife #celebratefreedom
