Pay It Forward SA Holistic sober housing solutions empowering long-term recovery 90% of all men and women relapse within the first 90 days of leaving treatment or detox.

Without a positive, safe and encouraging environment in which to live these newly recovering individuals hardly stand a chance. And rather than following the program of recovery they inevitably fall back into their old patterns and end up addicted and on the street again. Every day, we help heal the devastating effects of addiction by providing structured residential and assistance programs that reduce & prevent homelessness, unemployment, poverty and crime caused by substance abuse.

What an afternoon!

On October 6th, we gathered at the Security Service Event Center for our 9th Annual Restoring Lives Luncheon, and the room was full of the people who make recovery possible. We heard from keynote speaker Randy Grimes, who shared his story of long-term recovery and reminded us what’s on the other side of a second chance. We were inspired by Jasmine’s story of success in our Bridge Program, and we had the pleasure of honoring one of our most valued partners, the SAPD Hope Team.

To our sponsors, volunteers, and guests: THANK YOU for showing up for recovery. Thank you for standing with us in this mission. Because of you...RECOVERY CONTINUES HERE!
