The effort to build up sober living services for women struggling with substance-use disorder took a major leap forward this week in the Uintah Basin. ‘Project Alley’ is a nonprofit organization headed by a group of local faith leaders and representatives that have been working hard for several years to raise money, gather support, and establish a plan for a spiritually-based sober living facility, specifically for women. That reality is closer than ever with the announcement this week that Project Alley has closed on a home with 3 acres and the purchase was paid in full with the funds they have raised.
K. Heath McDougal-Deans made the exciting announcement on the Project Alley Facebook page on Tuesday and stated, “This would have never been possible without a BEAUTIFUL COMMUNITY, WITH AN ‘US WITH THEM’ MENTALITY, diverse, and from many walks, willing to serve, and also who understand the richness of giving back.” The exact location of the Project Alley home has yet to be announced but there will be plenty of service opportunities for those that want to help prepare the home for opening.
