I look forward to living life sober!

★★★★★ 5/5

“I came to FSR on 3/15/23 broken. I had lost everything that was important in my life. Family and friends didn’t trust me. I lost my home, my job and any savings I had accumulated. To be completely honest FSR saved my life. Everyone there truly cares and takes an active role in your recovery. There BS filter is always on and they hold you accountable for your actions. They approach your recovery with a velvet hammer. Tough and honest when needed, yet caring, loving and indispensable throughout the entire process. I am 133 days sober today. I have met some amazing people there in recovery and have seen the work that the clients have put in towards there sobriety. FSR is my family and always will have a very special place in my heart. I LOVE YOU GUY’S!”

They helped me get my smile back!

★★★★★ 5/5

“My experience with First Steps and their entire team has not only helped me to gain sobriety but maintain it now for knots 18 months. The 24 or so days I spent there was the best thing that happened. My kids have their mom, the parents have their daughter but most importantly I have myself back!! Stop asking yourself do I need to do this, can I do it and just do it.”

We have found our second family.

★★★★★ 5/5

“We have found our second family. My husband has been struggling with sobriety for years, the program helped him and me to understand that addiction is a disease not a “will” to not drink. It has given him a strength I have not seen before. The program works. I appreciate the family group as it is a safe place to be with other families that are struggling and working through the difficulties of addiction.”

Amazing Experience

★★★★★ 5/5

Amazing people. Super supportive and always there when you need them. My counselor, Amanda, makes it fun but also takes you to uncomfortable places in the best way. I recommend First Steps to anyone struggling with addiction.

You Get What You Put In

★★★★★ 5/5

It is true that “you get out what you put in.” To say that I was met half way is understating it! While I was the one that had to do the work I was supported every step of the way! And the family program was such a blessing for my mom and the friends who came. I am 18 months sober and I could not have done that – well I didn’t do it for many years – without First Steps.

Amazing Facility

★★★★★ 5/5

First steps is an amazing rehab facility. From the counselors, to techs to the case managers they handle everything for you so that you may focus on your recovery. Food is amazing. Facilities and residency are great. Couldn’t think of anything else to add to make the facility better. Thank you first steps.
