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.
