“This place started the journey that saved my life. I came to Maggie’s at the end of the road, with nowhere else to turn—and for the first time, I felt safe and comfortable. Who knows where I’d be if I hadn’t walked through these doors? When I arrived, I had nothing. Today, I have a steady job, a loving relationship, a home I’m proud to pay for, a car, sponsees who ask for my guidance, and—most importantly—my family fully back in my life. Getting sober has been the most rewarding thing I’ve ever done, even though it was terrifying to take that first step. Give this place a chance. You don’t have to live like this anymore.”
