We love our kids!

Is someone you care about affected by drug or alcohol exposure?

Hi, my name is Tammy DeHesa, founder of Making a Difference Support Services. As a foster and adoptive mother I have realized how important having resources available for my children are.

Unfortunately, I found it difficult to find services in the San Bernardino area that would help me care for my children that were born drug and alcohol addicted. Upon this realization, I decided it was time to reach out to others.

I was pleasantly surprised to find that there were many people and organizations willing to help. These wonderful parents and community partners have made a commitment to helping "Making A Difference" change the lives of substance and trauma exposed children and their families. May this website help you to find the support and resources you need.
