Debi's 1st meeting was in 1981. Her 1st sober date was in 1987. Her current and permanent sober date is 1/31/94. After a long history of trouble at home, school, and the law, from a very young age, including rehab, detox, jail, DUI, psych ward, diagnoses, medication, etc. Debi finally surrendered. She was dry 3.5 years for the 2nd time and ready to suicide. She reached out for help with more humility and desperation than she'd ever before been able to muster and allowed a recovered member to take her through the Big Book & the Steps. Debi finally had the vital spiritual experience the book talks about, did all of her 9th step amends in a meaningful way and now lives in Steps 10-12.  To get in contact with Debi, please send an email to [email protected]

David L’s journey with alcohol began at the age of 2, when his mom gave him his first drink in a baby bottle to keep him quiet. 

David  grew up in a dysfunctional family, with both of his parents being alcoholics. Despite their struggles, David didn’t follow the same path permanently.

Eventually, He hit rock bottom. He was exhausted from being a drunk and using drugs. That’s when he decided to go to treatment, and hasn’t looked back since.

Today, David’s life is dedicated to helping others. He sponsors men in recovery and stays deeply involved in the H&I (Hospitals and Institutions) community in Phoenix. One of his favorite commitments is bringing meetings to jails—it’s a service that fills him with purpose and hope.

Here is a bit about Chris A in his own words:  I was born to an unwed Mother in the 1950's who married an alcoholic and good time charlie. I grew up poor in a cotton mill town in N.C. I was beaten, sexually abused, abandoned emotionally on the way to becoming the ultimate rebel of society.  I found that using sex, alcohol and other mind altering substance to numb out the pain and trauma I was enduring. Life was a party for me as I partied my way further down the road of addiction, self loathing and destruction.  I became a workaholic to not only keep my lifestyle going but also as a distraction. Staying focused making money was time I did not have to face my fears and trauma etc.  I finally crashed and burned and walked away from my well paying job to become homeless, living on the streets.  I began my bumpy recovery 25 years ago and now have 9 years without a drink of alcohol or other mind altering drug. I'm currently retired, celebrating 21 years of marriage and living in Bountiful, Utah.
