I moved to Bobby's sober house in 2004 after treatment for heroin, crack and cocaine. I have been clean and sober ever since.

I have a life that is beyond my wildest dreams due to sober house living, meetings, the 12-step process and my sponsor. My son is back in my life, and I owe my life today in large part to Gail and Bobby Hargrove.

I am eternally grateful for their hard work and compassion.

The Way Back is a two-stage program for people with alcohol and drug abuse problems. With a set daily schedule, individual support, and clean, sober social activities our residents learn to live without alcohol or drugs. We show people the steps to find "The Way Back" from the nightmare of addiction.

• Introduce the process of recovery using the foundations of 12-step programs.
• Change behaviors associated with chemical dependency and work to eliminate the feelings of hopelessness.
• Help people become self-sufficient.
• Develop healthy relationships.

Our private pay, extended care program is comprised of two stages, which we have found improves rehabilitating rates verses conventional chemical addiction treatment centers. Stage 1 occurs in our residential facility, where we teach the techniques that help people stop the cycle of addiction and help them understand why they became addicted. In Stage 2 participants move to a sober living house, where they live in a supportive environment among peers also overcoming substance abuse. It's this two-pronged approach that makes The Way Back so different, and so successful.
