Workers are busy renovating a century-old two-story wooden structure in Quincy. The "Wilson House" will serve as a halfway home for women recently released from prison. The house is a stepping stone to help women adjust to society and live a healthy crime-free life.

Annie Berry says, "Having a safe haven that these women can go to before going into the community and find jobs and anything that's lacking in their lives before they went to prison. We want them to have an opportunity to get to be able to become strong productive citizens." Find out how you can assist in the restoration and program services.
