Key Achievements:
18 months sober, CNA certification, reunited with children
"After struggling with addiction for over a decade, I found hope at Gentle Haven. The supportive community and comprehensive programs helped me rebuild my relationship with my two daughters. Today, I'm 18 months sober, working as a certified nursing assistant, and have my own apartment. Gentle Haven didn't just save my life – they helped me reclaim it."
