When you take someone’s hand, you never let it go until they can stand on their own two feet.” Monseigneur Puma, Founder, Eva’s Village

Nothing demoralizes a person or destroys their relationship to self, family or friends quite like addiction. But, as featured guests Joey Mazza and Angelica Alicea tell host Pat Barbarito, there is always hope for the addict committed to recovery. It just might take a village to help them find their way. 

Joey and Angelica offer a raw, authentic look at their road to Eva’s Village – the organization instrumental in helping them rediscover their self-worth, community connection, and sense of hope for the future.

NOTE: This episode does include references to substance abuse and suicide and is intended for mature audiences only.
