Recovery Hero: Tim Brozo

Recovery Hero, Tim Brozo!!

My name is Timothy Brozo and I have been traveling this road of recovery for years now, and it has come with with many ups and downs. It has taken me many years of work to get the seven months of sobriety that I have now. Finally, people trust me. I have also been able to show people my good will while gaining the trust of my family, friends, co-workers, and employers. People have let me into their lives and homes now without the usual anxiety and trepidation. On top of this, my job even handed me a credit card and the keys to a vehicle! That means a lot to me.
