Dec. 18, 2020 – A well-known Chattanooga business owner who has been sober for 19 years has opened a home to help other women struggling with addiction.

Restaurant owner Scottie Bowman built The Launch Pad, a sober living house for women, and opened the doors to residents earlier this year.

It’s a place where women can navigate the road to sobriety and make a positive transition back into society.

Bowman, who owns The Big Chill & Grill and Scottie’s On The River, battled addiction for 25 years.

“I actually remember drinking a whole bottle of Formula 44-D and getting drunk on that in third grade and going to school and showing out being drunk,” Bowman told Channel 3.
