Jan. 8, 2025 – The Other Side Academy is a unique and successful addiction treatment facility. It doesn’t employ therapists or doctors. It is made up of former addicts who have been through everything a new “student” will be asked to do at the facility. The program is free of charge, but students must apply for the program and be screened before a decision is made on acceptance. Faculty members at “The Other Side Academy” are living examples that you can change your life and become a successful member of society.

Tori Randall is a program manager, and she knows firsthand the power of addiction and what it takes to come out “the Other Side.”

Randall said, “I was going to die. I was going to die or kill someone else. There was no more prison for me, no more jail. I was going to overdose and die or be involved in something super horrific.”

She was accepted into the program as a student and started her road to recovery and respectability. She said the key is commitment, and accountability.
