Changing Lives – One wOman at a time<br />
One of Mrs. <strong>Ford</strong>’s priorities at <strong>Betty</strong> <strong>Ford</strong><br />
<strong>Center</strong> was to meet the unique needs of<br />
women undergoing treatment for addiction<br />
to alcohol and other drugs. Because of her<br />
beliefs, treatment at the <strong>Center</strong> is genderspecific,<br />
to address the separate issues that<br />
face women.<br />
To honor Mrs. <strong>Ford</strong>’s vision, dedication and<br />
ongoing efforts, the <strong>Betty</strong> <strong>Ford</strong> Legacy<br />
Fund was established in January 2005. This<br />
permanent and endowed fund generates<br />
interest and investment income to provide a<br />
perpetual source of financial assistance for<br />
women seeking treatment at the <strong>Center</strong>.<br />
40% of all alcoholics and addicts are women, yet women only<br />
account for 25% of all people treated for chemical dependency!<br />

“The financial assistance I received for treatment at <strong>Betty</strong> <strong>Ford</strong> <strong>Center</strong><br />
made all the difference in the world. I learned the tools I needed to<br />
get and stay sober. And, best of all, my kids have their Mom back.”<br />
