"I'm a grown ass man and I don't have to put up with anyone's shit," he says on his way out.
A few weeks later, though, he's back knocking on our door.
It seems like the other halfway house he went to didn't offer what we do.
For example, they didn't offer the three meals a day we give our clients.
Plus, they didn't have a curfew. No meeting requirements. No in-house meetings. All they offered was a place for him to flop. As long as he paid his rent.
TLC is successful for a reason. We make our clients do things to help them into recovery.
We make them go to 90 meetings in 90 days. They have a curfew. They work and pay service fees. They have a sponsor. They must submit to drug testing on demand.
Those who are unhappy with this program still want to do things their way. And we're okay with people doing things their way.
But if they want to get sober and change their lives we can help them. In fact, we promise that if they do exactly as we tell them they'll get clean and sober.
In fact, we guarantee it.
