Mission:
To heal Michigan's victimized girls and women with best-practice treatment programs designed to meet their unique needs while serving other vulnerable children and families within Southeast Michigan. We help them to rebuild their lives through our full array of highly intensive programming, including female gender-responsive treatment, to help address the tough issues faced by adolescent girls, ages 11 to 17. We also provide community based services for emotionally challenged boys and girls, ages 6 to 17 in Michigan’s foster care system.

Our vision is to build a Village of Hope that enables vulnerable girls, as well as at-risk children and families, to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty by providing them with the education, daily living assistance and supportive social connections critical to their sustained success.

Core Values:

• Respect the sanctity of life, intrinsic dignity and inherent worth of all individuals
• Honor Vista Maria's spiritual foundation
• Empower our employees and consumers to achieve positive change
• Demonstrate compassion and genuine concern for others in all of our actions
• Celebrate the diverse cultural heritage and background of all our consumers and stakeholders

Programs:

• Residential programs for girls that are focused on mental health, trauma recovery, substance abuse treatment and community reintegration

• Two on-campus alternative education charter schools
• A continuum of highly intensive foster care services for boys and girls
• Juvenile Justice and Child Welfare partnerships and care programs
• Mentorship and youth assistance programs
