March 9, 2024 – “The gentleman that I work with are living examples that there is life after addiction,” said Intake Coordinator Derek Dare. “It’s just nice to see the family and motivations that’s allowed them to get to where they’re at.

What I’ve done in my past doesn’t matter anymore. It’s what I’m doing now.”
