History
Our story begins in 2008 when Founder and CEO, Ashley McIlwain, set out to pursue her God-given calling to help promote healthy marriages and relationships. After receiving her Master's in Clinical Psychology with a Specialization in Marriage & Family Therapy, Ashley wanted to create a sanctuary and hub for people everywhere to come and be encouraged in their marriages and lives. In addition to the online resources of Foundation Restoration, she does marriage seminars and workshops, and therapy for individuals and couples. This is an organization committed to helping create stronger lives, stronger marriages, and stronger communities.
