About Us

Linda Armstrong

In today’s society, challenges that plague our communities like substance/alcohol abuse, mental /physical abuse, dysfunctional family complications, strife caused by the lack of economic resources and poor education, cannibalize our personal integrity; without guidance individuals can become stranded in cycles that become obstacles to individual success that lead to self-defeat. We at Fruit In The Heart seek to help people emerge from recidivism issues to become productive members of society.

Our tools that help navigate these challenges is aimed at providing rehabilitative services that teach individuals how to deal with emotional and socioeconomic deficiencies in people’s lives. 

There is “no one size fits all” approach for life’s multiple challenges, but together we can help.
