- "I credit my counselor at PCA for being one of the biggest factors in restoring my marriage. I didn't know who to call for help, and then a friend told me that there were 'great people at PCA' - so I called." - Julie S., Mesa
- "PCA helped me and my family through the roughest time in our lives. After the divorce, I was very hurt and shut down, and my kids needed me to be completely there.
