I’m Tara and I’m an alcoholic and an addict. I have been clean and sober for two years thanks to Dove’s Nest. I entered this program totally broken and dead on the inside. I had lost everything: kids, family, friends, marriage, home, cars, etc. You name it and I lost it due to my severe drug addiction.

I entered the doors of “The Nest” on November 9, 2007; I was completely dead inside, and there I found not only a warm meal and a roof over my head but a sense of safety that I hadn’t known in a long time. There were wonderful counselors there that gave me hope and showed me how to live a new way of life, clean and sober.  I found the Tara that God had intended me to be all along.

I have since gotten my children back and am a great mother. I have an awesome family that I am engaged in. I am going back to school and making good grades to work with other alcholics and addicts. I attend AA meetings several times weekly and am very active in my sobriety. I NEVER could have imagined that my life would be the way it is today; I NEVER thought I could get sober and remain sober.

I am SO truely grateful to Dove’s Nest and ALL of its staff; that was a crucial part of the beginning of my new life. Thank you Dove’s Nest; you will ALWAYS be in my thoughts and prayers…I love you for all you have done for me and all the women’s lives you have changed!!!
