As promised, here is the rest of the story ...
Your support has meant a great deal to the men that we serve, it has helped us continue to deliver award winning treatment for the disease of addiction to drugs and alcohol and you have helped us to get to the position where we are now delivering our life saving, 14-16 week treatment program to people (men AND women) in the Lethbridge area.
An excerpt from the press release follows:
"Fresh Start Recovery Centre Calgary is pleased to announce their merger/acquisition of the South Country Treatment Centre in Lethbridge County Alberta. Combining Fresh Start’s programming and leadership with South Country’s history and facilities makes for a recipe for successful long-term addiction recovery in Lethbridge.
South Country Treatment Centre (SCTC) has been operating in Lethbridge since 1976, yet the opioid crisis has resulted in an immediate need to increase the capacity of our facility. Fresh Start Recovery Centre has helped impact and recover many lives in Calgary these past 28 years and we are confident that they have the knowledge, experience and ability necessary to expand and modernize the operations of SCTC to meet the increasing demand for a recovery-oriented system of care in Lethbridge and Southern Alberta. The Board of SCTC is looking forward to transitioning its operations to Fresh Start for the benefit of our community and our staff.” John R. King SCTC Board Chair."
Refer to that attached Press Release for the full story.
On November 2nd, Charity Intelligence Canada announced that Fresh Start is again a top-rated Five Star agency as well as a Canadian Top 100 Agency.
Thanks for your being a part of this great news and stay tuned for our GivingTuesday (December 1, 2020) messaging around "Recovery Behind the Mask".
Kindest Regards,
