Three Years Clean!

God has a way of keeping balance in our lives.

Since the weekend I've been reflecting on the untimely loss of one of our long-time clients.

Then this morning I receive an email from a Hard Six graduate who tells me he has three years clean.

And success stories like his are rewarding for those of us who manage TLC

This man's success proves that anyone with motivation can change.

He spent many years on prison yards for crimes related to his addiction. The addiction that held him back most of his life.

But when he came to TLC he was hungry to change. He went to college.  He volunteered as a manager. He worked hard. He did everything required of Hard Sixes. 

Sure, he received consequences because he screwed up sometimes. However,the important thing he did was stick around. He never ran off when things got tough.

We congratulate him on three years. We wish his success for all our clients.

And enough have made it over the last 22 years to make this project worthwhile.  Even though we sometimes experience tragedy.
