From Conflict To Connections

Sarah and Mark, along with their child Alex, were grappling with severe communication issues in their family. During the initial week working with SCAN, the household was filled with the sound of raised voices as they struggled to express themselves, often leading to emotional wounds. Their SCAN worker, Emily, spent time with them, witnessing the painful exchanges and offering a supportive presence.

Emily found herself trying to find productive solutions as she witnessed the family members' heartfelt cries, desperate pleas, and impassioned attempts to be understood and acknowledged. Emily soon found her heart warmed as, over time, a transformation occurred in the family.

The family managed to break through their communication barriers and engage in a sincere and open conversation. During this turning point, Sarah shared, "No one got mad. We just talked and today is even better." In the midst of their progress, Sarah expressed gratitude towards Emily for the invaluable assistance provided during their relatively brief time together.
