Second Chance Recovery
Organization Description
At Second Chance Inc, our mission is to help individuals whose substance use or behavioral health challenges have become unmanageable regain stability and rebuild healthier, more fulfilling lives. We provide a supportive and compassionate environment where every person is treated with dignity, offered practical tools for recovery, and given ongoing support—not a quick fix. Our approach addresses the full spectrum of recovery by promoting personal growth, developing life skills, healing trauma and co-occurring disorders, fostering peer support, and guiding clients toward successful reintegration into their communities.
