Testimonials
”I am grateful to House of Sophrosyne and the program of Narcotics Anonymous! I sincerely appreciate all the people inside and outside this disease who believe in me, especially when I doubt myself. A few months after I wrote this letter I used for the last time, that was two years ago. I wish for myself and every addict to stay clean just for today”
”The House of Sophrosyne has helped me learn that I am a good person as well as the program and the staff by far are the best.”
“H.O.S was a life changing experience for me. This program and the councilors are simply amazing”
“OMG I miss this place! I got very lucky. After detox I definitely wasn’t ready to go home! The House called and needed 3 ladies to fill the spots who pee’d dirty. This was life saving for me. A woman who just turned 50. Love the Ladies/counselors!!! I met some great friends I won’t forget. About to celebrate 4yrs. Sober since June 21st 2011”
