| Description | Catherine Connell and Claire Graham, Sisters of Social Service, established Wellspring Women’s Center in 1987. Their dream was to provide an environment where personal self-esteem might be nurtured and low-income women might be helped to recognize their innate goodness. They opened a storefront drop-in center in the Oak Park community of Sacramento. Assisted by numerous volunteers, Sisters Claire and Catherine carefully prepared a hospitable environment and welcomed guests with their children. Coffee, donuts and dignity were offered. Hearts were nourished. |
