“As parents, understanding that our son was not acting out, but has an addiction was a huge breakthrough in our relationship going forward. Our sense of personal failure, anger, worry, and despair, gave way to a sense of hope and confidence in the Oak Tree. The staff’s personal commitment and their relationship with each of the residents sets the example for everyone at Oak Tree. We strongly support and have benefitted from their adherence to the 12-step program. Our son’s time at Oak Tree, as a resident and later, as a house manager, emphasized activity, responsibility and accountability and focused on him rediscovering that he is a man of value and purpose. He is going on five years of clean, healthy living. Oak Tree’s experience in treating addiction was essential to helping him and our family through this transition with outstanding, long-lasting results. We are forever grateful.”
