I’ve finally finished college with 4.0 in addiction counseling. This has been a journey to say the least. The first time I attended was in the fall of 87 but because of my addiction I couldn’t get it together.
I’ve spent over 35 years as an alcoholic and an addict. I’ve spent 17 years homeless. I’m a disabled veteran of the Navy so this really meant allot to me. I graduated from Camden County College.
