Choices

What are some specific steps toward recovery you’re providing the clients of this community?

Many of our group discussions focus on the core of interrupting barriers that have been consistent struggles, whether that be trauma, mental health disorders, or strains in family relationships. Addressing these factors involves personal inspection and requires that open, familial communication between our clients and staff. By achieving this level of comfort, we can then advance their progress in recovery.

What we’re offering here at CHOICES is positively changing the trajectory of so many people’s lives. My staff and I are working to spread the word about the benefit of these services so more people know about us and can access what can be their pivotal point. Expanding our outreach initiatives while continuing our personalized in-house care is what we’re passionate about and what we’ll continue doing for as long as our community needs us. What short or long-term goals are you and the CHOICES staff working to achieve? One of the most significant hurdles for people recovering from addiction is being away from friends and family.There can be a void there, and I understand that. I think it’s so important to ensure everyone here feels supported and that they really have counselors and doctors who are here to stand in that gap for them. How do your personal experiences in recovery allow you to better assist people in the early stages of their process?

“Here at CHOICES, our responsibility is to provide a family atmosphere for our clients that allows them to become comfortable with all our staff.”

-Luther Jones, CEO of CHOICESToledo
