breaking the cycle
Step 13 is a non-profit, transitional living
program founded in 1983 for addicted homeless who
show a desire to give up their alcohol, drug, shelter and
soup kitchen dependency cycle and become productive members
of society. Step 13 is structured so that one size does not
fit all. That is why we do not set a time limit of 30 days,
60 days or a year. Some people have skills and just need
a helping hand, others have no skills or education and need
time to acquire the necessary skills to compete in today's market. |

It pays for food, it pays for shelter and it does something even more
important: it gives a man the kind of self-esteem he needs to be
a healthy, productive, member of society.

Bush, U.S. Drug Czar John Walters and 15 other treatment prevention professionals from around the country. The meeting was set up to discuss the new data that demonstrates “significant success reducing drug availability and use,” even as President Bush was wrapping up his term in office.
