Personal Statement
Everything worthwhile in my life exists as the direct result of my recovery. I have tremendous gratitude for my life and for the help I received along the way. I consider it a privilege to support others in their own process of healing and recovery. I can think of no better place to do this than as a member of the Sabino Recovery community.
