Recovering Addicts Left with Questionable Future


Recovery Associates Inc. is closing its doors leaving many addicts with limited options. The center which helped addicts recovering from substance and gambling addiction, will at least temporarily be shut down. According to this article, in Indiana, Vigo County ranks "sixth for meth addiction, eight for prescription drugs, and ninth for alcohol abuse." These numbers show the large amount of addicts needing treatment in the area. This is largely linked to the amount of drugs being produced in the area. Recovery Associates is a United Way partner and currently there are no plans to re-open. In order to help reduce any negative impact a gap in treatment might have Freebird Solutions is opening its doors to the displaced addicts.
