I really believe it's the most beautiful recovery place for women in the country. I mean it's just a beautiful, beautiful place and personal.
What does it take to turn the tide on addiction and find hope again? In this episode of 'Recovery Coast to Coast', Neil Scott sits down with Dan Carracino, a board member at New Directions for Women in Costa Mesa, CA. This gender-specific addiction treatment program is one of the oldest and most successful in the country, and Dan’s story is a testament to its impact.
Dan opens up about his personal journey through addiction and recovery, sharing how New Directions for Women has been a cornerstone in his path to healing. He emphasizes the crucial role of support systems like Al-Anon, a group that offers help to families and friends of those struggling with addiction. For many, Al-Anon becomes a lifeline, providing understanding and coping strategies when they’re needed most. One key point Dan touches on is the significance of continuing care after leaving treatment.
Recovery doesn’t end when you walk out the door; it’s an ongoing process that requires sustained support and community involvement. Dan explains how New Directions for Women ensures that this support continues, helping women and their families navigate the ups and downs of recovery. The conversation also dives into the role of the board in enhancing the organization’s effectiveness.
From recent upgrades to future plans, Dan sheds light on how dedicated leadership can drive positive change and improve outcomes for those seeking help. This episode is not just about addiction; it’s about resilience, community, and the power of collective support. Whether you’re on your own recovery journey, supporting a loved one, or simply interested in learning more about effective addiction treatment, Dan Carracino’s insights offer a beacon of hope.
