Renewal Story: Patrick
Posted:
“When I first came to UGM-TC I was a madman,” Patrick says. He had been on his own for six months after more than fourteen years in prison, and was struggling to maintain sobriety. He had already had another brush with the law and feared he would never be able to start over. But Patrick found a new beginning when his peer sponsor led him to UGM-TC.

Renewal Story: Darius
Posted:
Kicked out of his mother’s house while he was still in high school, Darius says he had felt “like an orphan” for the past three years. He spent those years in and out of jail, drifting from friends’ homes to shelters, sometimes staying with his grandmother, sometimes sleeping outside. “I had no one to support me. It was heartbreaking.”
