Voices for Recovery

Kevin Ferguson (06/18/2012)

My name is Kevin Ferguson. Presently I have 3 years clean due to my participation in a Cumberland outpatient program located in Brooklyn NY. Due to the many dedicated counselors such as Mr. Foster and Ms. Adams I was finally able to address my addiction issues because of the care and concern afforded me by these two individuals. I am now presently working in the field providing the same support to others that Cumberland afforded me. Commitment, faith, and visualization were my keys to regaining my life back. I used what I had in my hands. What's in your hands?
