Review from Rehabs.com

The entry fee was affordable, I have been a addict since I was 15 or 16 and I entered the program at age 51. It taught me enough to get out of relapse and get my life back on track. I am grateful for the experience at fellowship house. They gave us the tools and taught us how to use them. I went back to my workbook and used the tools I was taught while I was there.

We love hearing about your treatment experience
