We owe these men a great deal for their foresight and concern for those suffering from alcoholism and other drug addictions.  October 17, 2018 marks fifty years of existence for our organization.  We hope that whenever the suffering alcoholic/addict reaches out for help that we can be there for that person and offer them a place of peace and solace.
