The road to recovery is a challenging process, but a key part of recovery depends on the individual as well as the program. Recovery Contacts, Inc is a recovery program that currently helps 71 men on their path to recovery by offering more than just a place to stay. However, the place they’re staying could use some tender, love and care.
Brian Blackington is a recovering addict and says he started his road to recovery at the RCI house.
“It was a good place for me to get my life together. It all started here for me because this is where I came after treatment,” Blackington said.
He’s now the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of RCI.
“Seeing other people come through here and have goals and be successful is truly a blessing,” Blackington said.
Blackington, along with RCI, are helping other men like Thomas Crabb turn their lives around.
“I was riding a bicycle when I came in and now I have a brand new car. I’m a manager at Dollar Tree. I have my own landscaping business on the side,” Crabb said.
