The staff of McShin showed me how to live a life of recovery. Today, I have two beautiful children, a loving girlfriend, a job, money in the bank, and a purpose in my life. Without McShin and the people I met there, I don't know where I would be today.

Nick S.

I am very grateful for McShin. When I first arrived, I was pregnant and had nowhere else to go. I was able to get some recovery through my pregnancy. Pregnancy was very difficult for me, but recovery and McShin made it easier. If it wasn't for the community and support I found at McShin, I probably would have returned to a life of active addiction. I am grateful for McShin and recovery every day!

Katherine G.

"I didn't know if I was going to stay in recovery. I'm so grateful for McShin. I felt like I mattered to the world again. I've managed to stay in recovery for 9 months thanks to McShin. Recovery is not just staying abstinent from drugs, it's a lifestyle. You will have to work hard and it's worth it."
