Raymond C.

I would describe my childhood as difficult, I had a tough time making friends since I was mainly homeschooled growing up. I started smoking weed at the age of 15 and by 19 I was already in a full blown heroin addiction. I used drugs because I liked the feeling that heroin gave me. I came to Teen Challenge because I had nowhere to turn and I heard the program offers hope. I do enjoy the bed and roof that’s over my head while in the program, but also the opportunities that are offered throughout the program. I hope to continue living a life for Christ long after I complete.
