  • Employment Case Management

    These people showed up and helped me when I was down and out. Not only did my case worker bend over backwards to help me with housing and a job, but she also was always available as a sympathetic ear when I was in early early recovery. I really do not know where I'd be right now if it weren't for my case worker and this organization.

    … I definitely recommend Advocates Recovery Services to anyone struggling with addiction looking to make a positive change in their life, or anyone who wants to support a friend or family member that is facing addiction.

  • Marilyn House Review

    I’ve become a part of a larger recovery community here. I thought I was alone in my struggles. But thanks to Advocates, I realized others struggled and found a path to hope. What I found at Advocates is lifelong, authentic relationships. The future I was planning to cut short now looks bright. I’m hopeful. And I’m at peace.

  • Murphy House Review

    To my precious Advocates Recovery Services and staff:  

    … It taught me love and patience to help and support those who were in the  grips of addiction.  My eyes now have sight! I'm forever grateful for all the help l got along the way especially the counseling for the PTSD from the assault that left me homeless.

  • Housing Manager's Perspective

    As this point, I was shocked that I was this far into my recovery. Never in my wildest dreams had I thought I would make it out of the mess I had gotten myself into and be able to support others in similar situations.

  • Recovery Coach Academy Review

    I will be able to empower those I am coaching. I will use the information from my facilitators and the workbook to continue studying and learning. I will connect with a few of the participants to create a support and community for myself as self care.
