Sam Dill was a member of our Board of Directors from 2004-2010. She decided to join because she believed in our Philosophy of Treatment that was the foundation of recovery. She shared that it felt respectful, supportive and encouraging. EVERYONE at S.A.M was part of the client's journey. She shared a memory of an interaction between Shirley the cook and a new resident, and memories of Sam the dog (yes, S.A.M. had a house dog named Sam). She shared a memory of an outing to Waterton Lakes National Park, "I watched while several of the clients sat quietly by the water, and others spent time playing like kids for the 1st time~ skipping rocks, sitting and talking or simply being quiet in such a beautiful place. It brought tears to my eyes watching this very meaningful time..It was amazing as well as ingenuous organizing such an experience ~even our spouses were welcome." Thank you Sam for being a part of our organization, and sharing your memories with us!
