KICK ADDICTION TO THE CURB

L I S T E N

Since 2020, we've been in the trenches with thousands of people from all walks of life—online and right here in Colusa County—helping them kick addiction to the curb. We're not about judgment; we're about getting real and getting free. Our whole approach is built on something powerful: the raw strength of shared experience, the unshakeable hope that comes from people who truly get it, and the fire of empowering each other!

 

Welcome to recovery redefined, no games, no gimmicks, just real solutions that work. Your comeback starts now!

NINE YEARS CLEAN

My name is Jeff. This year I turned 29 and I'm blessed to celebrate nine years free off Meth! I’m so glad my grandma lived to see the drastic change I made into becoming the man I am today. I have a fantastic career, I’m contemplating BUYING my first house, and I couldn’t be happier with the direction my life is headed!

"It's important to meet people impacted by homelessness where they're at, but not leave them where they're at."  - Susan Wagenaar, Advocate, CCR Founder

Heather's Story

 I was an addict for 22 years, addicted to anything that would help me smother my emotions. Meth was always my go to though. I’ve been to prison, doctor shopped, prostituted my body to get just one more. I was my own worst enemy for a long time killing myself slowly. I am my parents only child and yet they lived in fear of me. I hurt everyone I came in contact with. Today, I’m clean! I have gotten my felonies expunged, and now I work with juveniles in juvenile drug court!
