Testimonials From Our Clients
- Krystina P. 20 years old
- After enduring many hardships in my life, I began suppressing my past with drug use. When the opportunity presented itself for a rehab center, I was beside myself because of my fear of the unknown. When people hear the word “rehab”, often the thoughts that arise (at least for me) are “shared, white, padded, mental facility type places that only tell you “don’t do drugs” and send you home. I was completely caught off guard at what I found during my experience at Footprints in Recovery. Yes, the basis of everything was to work a program to live with your disease but it didn’t just teach me steps in NA/AA. Footprints opened my eyes, heart, and mind to the core of my drug use. The staff as well as the others in recovery taught me so much about life, helped me realize I was suppressing my past, and gave me an outlet. I faced my demons. Footprints in Recovery made an indescribable positive impact on my life. In my opinion, Footprints in Recovery is not just a “Rehab” it’s a whole different world. It may seem a little off and its hard to explain in words but from the time I arrived at Footprints to when I left, it was like nothing else in the real world mattered. I got to focus on me and my recovery and also learn and help others. Being there, taking the time to listen and face my issues, gave me the serenity, courage, and wisdom I needed to start my life because I wasn’t living. The relationships I made with others, staff as well as others in recovery, mean so much to me. Everyone there touched my heart and everyone there will forever have made a difference in my life whether it was big and/or small. They will always have a place in my heart throughout my entire life because they helped me start my life. I will be forever grateful for Footprints In Recovery. Living life the way its meant to be…

- Jay M. 48 years old
- After more than 30 years of substance abuse, I realize that I must either change or die. For 7+ years now I have tried numerous detox centers and rehabs to address my problems but have always returned to using. I now have hope for my recovery thanks to Footprints In Recovery.The state funded rehabs I have utilized in the past were always overcrowded, understaffed and catered to the “lowest common denominator” of their clients; not to mention that most of the programs are only 14 days long. This was not the case at Footprints.Footprints’ 30,60 and 90 day programs are custom designed to individual client needs, educational background and intellectual level. The holistic approach to recovery embraces the three major aspects of success; physical emotional and spiritual well being.Because of the individual attention and small group environment, I have now graduated to the Sober Living portion of the program. I am now learning to cope with “life on life’s terms” in the real world with the security of knowing that I have support just across the street. To me Footprints In Recovery has been a God-send and has given me a new chance at life without drugs and alcohol. Plus, the fact that is at the beach doesn’t hurt either! 2 years clean now and loving life.

- “Thanks to your program I have my Mother back. She struggled for several years with her addiction to prescription drugs. We (the family) had tried so many different things. None of them worked. It’s like she had given up on herself. After 60 days her life was changed. I would like to thank you for helping her become the Mother we had missed for so many years.Not only did she overcome her addiction, but she was able to deal with the loss of her husband of 40 years. The strength she found within herself would not have been possible without your guidance. Mom isn’t the only one that healed through your program. We learned together as a family and understand each-other so much more respectively now.” 4 years clean now.

- My family and I highly recommend Footprints in Recovery. For years we struggled to “change” our daughter’s habits. Much money was spent on doctors, therapists, psychiatrists, and medicine. Her recovery began day one at Christian based, Footprints in Recovery. There are no medical treatments; simply a spiritual journey where the addict can learn to like themselves again and to appreciate and be thankful for life.I understand the cost is a big concern. Find a way to make it happen. Their lives are worth it and you will never regret your decision. Our daughter became baptized to signify the beginning of her new life. What an emotional day for all of us! All the years of anguish and worry. Now our hearts are at peace knowing our daughter has seen the Light. Give your addict one last chance. Let the experienced, loving, caring counselors guide your loved one to a new life, free of addiction. Do it for them. Do it for your family. You too can feel that peace in your heart, the ability to breathe again…. and shes soon to be 4 yrs clean soon.
