A Second Chance and a New Outlook

From Self-Destruction to Self-Worth

When this resident entered prison, he described himself as a “drunk, selfish person” someone who had lost sight of everything but alcohol. But incarceration became a turning point one that would lead him to Aim High, sobriety, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Upon release, he was placed at Aim High. What he found here wasn’t just structure it was connection, care, and community.

“When I went to prison, I was a drunk, selfish person that only cared about alcohol and myself. Going to prison changed my outlook on life. Getting out and God putting me here is a blessing. I couldn’t ask for any other people God could put me with. Thanks for everything: heart, and loving, caring hearts.”

Now, he’s focused, present, and walking in gratitude. His transformation is proof that sometimes, the hardest parts of our past become the foundation for something better.

At Aim High, we don’t just provide sober living we build bridges from survival to success.
