Why We Exist

"For most of my life, I didn't have anyone to look up to or to support me the way I needed. By my twenties I was in the middle of addiction — I was homeless, and I had lost my kids."

"Then I met Pam. I explained my story, and she got me help right away. I spent 90 days in rehab, worked the steps, changed who I spent my time with, and focused everything on getting my children back."

"Today I'm sober, and I'm present for my son and daughter in a way no one ever was for me. I never want to look back. Next Steps gave me the family support I never had. Life has been good, and I feel blessed."
