2024: Champions of Recovery

Which Valley Hope location did you attend?

Valley Hope of Moundridge

When is your sobriety birthday?

February 7, 2024

What does your recovery community look like?

A very supportive group of people I have met in recovery as well, and a group of believers that God is their higher power, and with him anything is possible!

How does your community support your recovery?

They are always there with encouragement and support on my tough days, and are never judgmental.

What advice would you give to someone who doesn’t have a recovery community?

Try as hard as you can to get one and never give up on yourself. Find honest people to surround yourself with and never be afraid to ask for help.
