Before Interim House, Lisa had seriously considered killing herself. Addicted to drugs and alcohol, trapped in a bad relationship and diagnosed with HIV, Lisa saw death as the only viable option for herself.
With the help of friends and family, however, she left her life as a prostitute on the streets and came to Interim House. There, she made her first friends and connected with her therapist. Five years later, she's sober and healthy.
