With a guitar slung over his shoulder, John spent years drifting up and down the coast, only to find himself spiraling into homelessness due to his addiction. But his story doesn't end there.
Taken to his first Alcoholics Anonymous meeting by a friend, John discovered a community that would change his life forever.
