My Story is pretty simple. I started drinking and doing drugs at age 12, by the time I was 16 I was using daily. I went to prison at 19 and spent the next 15 years in and out of trouble with the law.
I first came to the center about three years ago. I was beat up, lost and in need of people to help me find my way. The center became a place of safety and hope for me. Somewhere I could come and just be. Slowly I came out of my shell and began this journey I am on now: connected to the recovery community and having a life worth living.
