Alberto, 36, underwent substance use disorder treatment at a Recovery Bridge Housing facility operated by Fred Brown Recovery Services upon his release from prison. After being homeless for three years and not seeing his mother and two children for even longer than that, he had emotional barriers which he eventually overcame. He was able to get a full-time job and rebuild his relationship with his family, even moving back in with his mother, who is thrilled about his recovery. While deeply grateful to everyone who helped him, he added, “I thank myself for not faltering or deviating from my path to recovery.”
