MISSION STATEMENT
  To assist burn victims and their families in becoming burn survivors through rehabilitation, treatment and research; the reduction of death and injury from burns and fire through prevention education; and to serve as an advocacy partner for the prevention of trauma associated with other injuries.
ASHES-TO-LIFE ADULT SUPPORT GROUP

"A burn victim is someone who has been the victim of a serious, disfiguring, or disabling burn, but has not yet learned to understand and live with the consequences of that injury."

"A burn survivor is someone who has learned to adopt a positive self image about himself despite his injuries and who has decided to take charge of his life and live it to the best of his ability."

We help you make the important transition from victim to survivor. Please contact us to see when our next meeting is and we would love to see you.
