Jared Lanpher is proof of being so much more than your past . He has overcome numerous roadblocks including addiction and incarceration. Along his road to recovery while incarcerated he was faced with a choice to accept help or turn it away . The turning point of the story was over 4 1/2 years ago, when Dr. Brian Wind came to the Rutherford County Jail to give him one last shot at getting his life back. He offered him the opportunity to go to treatment at JourneyPure. After his treatment he went on to work in treatment himself - in various positions. He now leads the Continuing Care Team at JourneyPure, who help other addicts into their next step after treatment. Jared is now leading others into freedom one day at a time with his own story and bravery.
