At Central Alabama Wellness, progress is built one step at a time.

Through personalized care, daily skill-building and connections to community resources, the United Way partner agency helps clients gain stability and work toward greater independence. For one client, that journey has led to an apartment of his own and a new goal of finding employment: https://www.uwca.org/building-skills-for-independence-at-central-alabama-wellness/
