My experience at Charleston Recovery Center has been absolutely life changing. The staff here is second to none. When I came into the Charleston Recovery Center i was a drug addict completely beating down by my own mistakes, completely and utterly defeated by life and absolutely broken. They taught me that my addiction is a disease with a three part illness with a two fold nature. They also showed me and give me the tools to deal and handle my addiction and my disease. If it wasn't for the Hope and it's staff I'd be either in jail, or worse dead. I'm so grateful for the life that the hope has showed me that I can live today and I don't have to live life like I used to. This wonderful place saved my life no doubt and I'm forever grateful to be the man i am today because of The Charleston Recovery Center. They are forever a part of my life and I consider them to be family.
This program has changed my life. I was hopeless and spiritually sick when I first came in, but I wanted something new. This experience was far beyond what I had hoped for. I learned so much and am so grateful for everyone that I’ve met and their commitment to helping me become the woman God has always planned for me to be. I don’t know where I’d be right now if I hadn’t been given this beautiful gift. Thank you for saving my life and helping me to restore that life to one worth living.
In 2016, I walked into The Hope completely hopeless. I didn’t believe that any program — let alone this one — could actually help me. I was lost, exhausted, and convinced I was beyond saving.
But here’s the truth: if you’re tired of being tired, and you’re willing to follow some simple directions — even just a little bit — what they teach you here works. It works when you do it every day. It works when you pass it on to others. That’s the key.
Today, I have eight years of sobriety. My kids are in my life. Their mother and I have a strong relationship. I’ve rebuilt trust with my family and friends. I’ve got a life I’m proud of. I’m a 100% satisfied customer.
So stop listening to your own thinking. Let someone else guide you — just for a while. You’ll be amazed where it can take you.
I recently celebrated one year of sobriety, and I owe a tremendous amount of gratitude to the Charleston Recovery Center and the incredible staff who helped guide me through the 12 Steps of AA. From the moment I arrived, I felt supported, understood, and challenged to grow.
Special thanks to Jett, Thomas, and Gene—your dedication, compassion, and personal insight into recovery made all the difference. Each of you brought something unique to the table: Jett’s direct approach and honesty, Thomas’s calm and steady encouragement, and Gene’s wisdom and lived experience. Together, you helped me confront the root causes of my addiction and taught me how to live with integrity and purpose.
The 12-Step program here is not just a guideline—it’s a way of life. At Charleston Recovery Center, they don’t just tell you what recovery looks like; they show you, day by day, through their actions and the community they've built. It’s a tough program at times, but if you’re serious about recovery, this place will change your life.
A year ago, I couldn't imagine making it this far. Today, I wake up sober, grateful, and hopeful. Thank you for giving me the tools and support I needed to reclaim my life.
I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support I received at Charleston Recovery Center. This place has truly been a life-changer for me. When I first walked through their doors, I was lost in my struggles with drug addiction and alcoholism, but the compassionate staff helped me find not only my path to recovery but also my connection to God.
The understanding I gained about my disease was profound. Through their comprehensive programs and individualized care, I learned to view my addiction not just as a struggle, but as a part of my journey that I could overcome. The spiritual guidance I received opened my eyes to the possibility of a renewed life.
As I approach two years of sobriety, I can confidently say that I wouldn’t be where I am today without the unwavering support from the team at Charleston Recovery Center. Staff members like Jett, Jeanine, and Gene Rowell were instrumental in my early recovery. Their encouragement, wisdom, and genuine care made all the difference. They were there for me during my toughest days, offering guidance, understanding, and hope when I needed it most.
If you or a loved one is struggling with addiction, I wholeheartedly recommend Charleston Recovery Center. They provide not just treatment, but a community and a pathway to a brighter future. Thank you, Charleston Recovery Center, for helping me reclaim my life!
