TC help me to realize I am a child of God and gave me a sense of purpose in my life .
My son graduated from the Turnbridge program in November. He is a different young man because of his time there. They really worked on not only the addiction but the underlying psychological and emotional aspects of his addiction. I had a scared, irritable addict on my hand when he started the program and he is now more confident of himself, mature and has even been hired by Turnbridge as Phase 1 and Phase 2 support staff. I couldn't be more proud of him and happier that he has decided to stay in an environment that is so supportive and professional. All of the staff are very impressive and I can't say enough about how great the communication was during my son's program.
