“I arrived at SouthLight September of 2017 with my 2-year-old son (who I LOVE DEARLY) certain of one thing…I could not continue to live my life the way I had been. While at SouthLight I was able to focus on learning the necessary skills needed to be successful in recovery. Three years later I am still implementing the skills I learned in group. With the foundation in recovery I took when I graduated, I have been able to successfully gain and maintain employment with a livable wage or higher, secure housing and become the mother, daughter and sister my family deserves❤️. ”
