“Having people, including probation, tell me they are proud of me and they could see the change in my behavior really hit home. That made me strive to push even harder to do what’s right and made me have more integrity about myself.”
Overall this was an amazing program. I have made a complete turn around because of ARC. I got a lot out of managing anger. It really taught me the tools I continue to use. Peer Check In taught me to open up and tell people how I am doing. Not hold it in. I feel like it mostly taught me to keep myself accountable and to own up to my mistakes and not to quit if I do make a mistake. Recovery is hard. No one is perfect and I feel that ARC does a good job when it comes to understanding that (I am a prime example). Most of all, ARC allowed me to gain back my freedom. I feel free from the miserable life I was living and they taught me a new better life. One I can be proud of. The support ARC gives and the staff is 110% amazing. If you really want recovery ARC is the #1 place to be. ARC is open to whatever keeps you clean and I love that it doesn’t matter what. If it’s keeping you sober and doing the right thing, ARC is on board!

My time here has been amazing. I got a lot of help along the way. My network has really grown and the care I received here was great. I was helped with my depression that I had from my mom’s death and my relapse. I learned it is okay to be sad sometimes and I learned that helping others is what I love to do. I am grateful for everything I have done and learned here at ARC. I am so thankful for the truth and believing yall. This will always be a place I feel safe and will always be a place I call family.

Before coming to ARC I had no life. I merely existed mostly in and out of jail or homeless. ARC gave me the tools I needed to regain my sanity to start to heal old wounds and work on rebuilding a relationship with my wife. I hate cliches but I’ve truly learned the skills to deal with life on life’s terms. I owe ARC everything. They helped me get my life back. What else could I ask for? I have never been more grateful for anything in my life. Thank you ARC!

I feel the most important thing I’ve gained is a clear and focused mind and a healthy and better perspective on myself and the world around me. All that has come from being responsible for myself and thoughtful about taking care of myself and guarding my recovery. I needed a sanctioned lifestyle to reorganize myself. This program has opened my mind up to the aspects of me that need progress and improvement and has filled me with a desire to want to enact those changes and move forward with my life.

Coming to ARC and choosing recovery was the best choice that I have ever made. This place gave me the accountability and structure. I needed while figuring out who I was as a person and learning how to live my life clean. While staying here I was able to build my network and build some accountability for when I leave. Since being in recovery I have repaired relationships with family, bought a car, and learned how to be happy with the person I am. Thanks to staff and everyone at ARC.
