Stories of hope
Life can be
different.

From addiction’s grip
to a life rebuilt.
This RU graduate’s story moves from eleven years of heroin and meth addiction to faith, family, and four years of victory over drugs and a criminal lifestyle.
“I now have 4 years victory over drugs and a criminal lifestyle.”
What can be overcome?

Substance addiction
Alcohol, heroin, meth, prescription drug misuse, and other substances that have taken control.
Destructive habits
Patterns such as pornography, gambling, and other private battles that keep pulling life off course.
A painful past
Criminal choices, broken trust, fractured relationships, and consequences that can make a new beginning feel impossible.
