SUCCESS STORIES
Matt
Haven Homes has been a wonderful place to help me stay clean and sober. There is an amazing management team that really cares and believes in me. They push me forward to be a better person every day. I'm also really grateful to live in a place where my roommates support each other in our recovery and help each other to move forward as well. I'm truly blessed.

Thank you for the opportunity to say a few words that reflect my gratefulness to be a resident at Haven Homes. Been here now for eight months. I’m very pleased at how the house runs. Very blessed to have the men that are here.

Haven Homes helped me turn my life around. I went through the St. Vincent Intensive Outpatient Program and was very successful at maintaining my new-found sobriety. The environment is supportive. Respect, responsibility and accountability are partial foundations to the model. It’s helpful being treated as an individual and not lumped together with other folks and their own unique situations.
Elaine
My name is Elaine Robinson. My clean date is 12/16/20. In my addiction, I lost everything that I cared for, this included my two children. I enrolled in Lifeworks Women Intensive Outpatient in April 2020. Living on my own, I found it impossible to stay clean.
So with the help of my support team at LifeWorks I checked myself into Mountaindale Recovery Center on December 16th of 2020 and devoted myself to my recovery. Immediately, the blessings of recovery were poured out to me. After only two weeks of being there, my children were returned to my care. I learned to love life again without the help of drugs and alcohol.
​
I graduated from MRC on April 2nd, 2021, and immediately moved into Haven Homes. The support and connection that I found there strengthened my recovery. The friends that became my family will be with me for life. I graduated from LifeWoks Intensive Outpatient Program in October 2021. I have now received my CRM (Certified Recovery Mentor) and PSS (Peer Support Specialist) and am now a part of the Leadership team at Haven Homes.
I have found that my purpose in life is to help those who are hopeless and to love those who cannot love themselves yet. To guide them, if they so desire, to a life of true happiness. To give back what was so freely given to me.
Destiny
From the moment I walked through the doors I knew that I was going to love this place because it felt like a home. The decorations all throughout the house are uplifting and spiritual and that comforted me for my entire stay here. I appreciated the structure, accountability, and seriousness of a better future for myself and my housemates that Haven Homes expressed. Both my boys were very comfortable for our entire stay here and also considered it their home happily. I will be forever grateful to Haven Homes for providing me and my children with a comfortable, loving, clean, and sober place to stay during my time here.
