I arrived at CCFA with a broken spirit after a decade of failed attempts to stay sober and an inability to come to terms with my addiction. I left with a renewed sense of self-worth, self-esteem, and an acceptance of the choices I've made. Thanks to the commitment from the top-notch staff and the peer support group, I was finally able to shed the crippling shame that hindered my ability to recover. My 60 days here were transformative, inspiring, and priceless. Thank you CCFA for giving me back my life.
