YOUR STORIES

Welcome

We want to extend a warm welcome and support you in finding hope with you and your loved ones struggle with addiction. Please share your story with us and connect with other families that are on the same path.

Before There Was An After

Our goal was not just to tell our story but to write a book that could help others who were navigating addiction. The stigma of addiction creates a vacuum for those seeking any information. You are left scouring the internet for answers. Our hope is that the book and this website create a resource of hope and possibilities.
