Our Story
My journey into recovery truly began when I started sponsoring newcomers in Alcoholics Anonymous. Through that process, I discovered my passion for helping others navigate their own paths to sobriety. Each story I heard, each challenge faced, ignited a desire in me to make a broader impact—why not extend that support on a larger scale?
​
When I first entered treatment, I was met with a community of compassionate individuals who offered support and kindness. The friendships I formed were invaluable. They taught me that recovery is not just about the individual struggle; it’s about the collective journey.
​
A significant part of my motivation comes from the loss of my twin brother, who battled addiction and, despite his efforts, ultimately lost his fight. His journey drives me to create a space where others can find the support he desperately needed.
​
This vision led to the creation of Trinity Sober Living. We aimed to foster a welcoming environment where individuals could feel safe and connected. It’s not just about providing a place to stay; it’s about building a community. Here, residents share laughter, experiences, and mutual support, reminding one another that they’re not alone.
​
At Trinity, we prioritize holistic healing—mind, body, and spirit. Our workshops and activities encourage residents to express themselves and find joy in recovery. Each time someone shares their story or achieves a milestone, it strengthens our bond and reinforces the message that recovery is a shared journey.
​
When I see residents taking their first steps toward sobriety, it’s a powerful reminder of why we do this work. Their victories, no matter how small, inspire us all. I want to ensure that no one feels isolated in their struggles, just as my brother once did.
​
Trinity Sober Living is more than just a place to stay; it’s a supportive home where healing flourishes. Through every challenge and triumph, we celebrate each individual’s journey. Together, we create a space filled with hope and connection, proving that recovery is not just about overcoming obstacles but also about building a life filled with joy and camaraderie.
