GILLIS STORIES
 
All of us have personal stories to tell. Happy stories and sad stories. Funny stories. Serious stories. Each story we tell is a part of our own history, and we love to share them with others.

Gillis has stories about our children and our families. And we love to share also. As you read the stories remember that each story is a part of all of us here at Gillis.

Our vision—to ensure that all children live in an emotionally stable, safe and nurturing environment—comes to life in these stories.

To protect the identity and confidentiality of our children and families, all names have been changed.
