God’s Chosen Ones

if selected we would purchase a second facility that we could use to further our reach and to be able to serve women and veterans and we can only serve men at the moment. The opiate crisis is so great that we need more facilities to and vehicles to stay in the fight.

The opioid crisis in this country has taken so many lives that we were inspired to act, we could not stand by while others continued to pass away. Also we were inspired to get involved to fight alongside those already in the fight against addiction since the success rates of those new to sobriety are so low. We launched a nonprofit called God’s Chosen Ones and opened up a facility where we could work with the individuals in recovery. We live with the men and have dedicated our lives to this fight and have sacrificed much to continue. Our aim is more financial support in order to continue the battle against the horrible disease of addiction, especially in dealing with the opioid crisis that effects us all. Having gone through our own journey towards recovery we have a deep love for helping others achieve greatness and know who they are in the eyes of our creator. We all jumped into school to pursue Master’s and PHd degrees. In helping others, we have found a purpose that drives us through our own recovery. We had come to realize that we are only alive today because we all had been Chosen.

We have developed a system that is an alternative to the 12-step program. We don’t knock the 12-step method but according to all the data and in our own experiences, we have found that for a large number of people have not found success with this approach. We instead focus on what we call the 3 stages of recovery. 1) The initial stage, where one first realizes a need for treatment 2) The intermediate stage, in which one learns how to deal with emotions without turning to a substance. 3) The stage of advancement, where instead of referring to oneself as an addict forever, we instead look to remain in a stage of advancement, always looking to improve. This system focuses on the future instead of looking at the past, which is what happens when looking solely at oneself as an addict. We employ this system in an environment where these steps can be worked through while still having the ability to maintain other responsibilities. We currently only serve men but with extra support we can reach so many more. We have already seen great successes with plenty of success stories

We have decided to look beyond the 12-step approach because it was created in a time long ago, in a world that doesn’t exist anymore. The problem of addiction is so complex that one approach will not be enough to fight it. We have forged a new weapon in this battle. And percentage-wise we are seeing just as much, if not more success.

We are seeing great success as we are able to help individuals from all areas and by doing so this helps all communities. As individuals go back to their communities able to be a blessing instead of a burden, our communities become safer and more economically productive as more people enter the workplace and help others along their roads to recovery. This effect is felt by all as we truly make America great again one community at a time and one addict at a time.
