Agora House For Men

Victor Wilson

I came in to The Agora House in January of 2018. I had no money to my name, no place to live, I was living off medicaid, and had a very strained relationship with my family. I FINALLY decided that it was time to change. But... I needed and lacked Structure and Guidance in my life. I quit fighting everything and everyone and just surrendered. I started listening. Listening to the people who cared about me, and those that were going through recovery to understand that there IS HOPE. It didn't happen overnight. But that's the beauty of Recovery.. IT TAKES TIME!! The Agora House and it's director Scott Hinchman gave me the opportunity and time to focus on me. It helped me repair my relationship with my family (especially my children), helped me get a job and start paying for my own insurance, helped keep me surrounded by other guys going through recovery that to this day I WILL have a lasting friendship with. I learned how to handle things (Life) as an adult without having to fall back on mind altering substances which was my crutch for over 15 years. All in all.. I found a newer, better version of ME! You learn throughout Recovery about Gratitude.. We ALL have many things to be Grateful for and for myself I took those people, and things for granted for many, many years. I now realize that it's the people I meet, the people I love, the choices I make, and the Faith that I have that will truly define who I am. This program helped show me that. And for that I am forever Grateful. If you are ready to find a new way to live, are WILLING to learn and listen to others who DO have your best interest, be a productive member of society, and want to find the newer version of you.. All while enjoying what recovery has to offer... If The Agora House can help me.. Then it can DEFINITELY help you! Love Never Fails!

As a family member of a former resident, my experience with Agora House was very positive. The program offered treatment by having structure, accountability, and social activities in place. The treatment director was knowledgeable, and caring; firm but fair with residents. Communication with the family was encouraged.

This program has changed my life in ways I've never dreamed. The program teaches individuals how to live life without the need for mind-altering substances, how to live as a productive member of society, and how to overcome the obstacles that life throws at you without the use of drugs or alcohol. It's fellowship creates bonds that will last a lifetime. I've seen many people turn their lives around and succeed as a result of this program. Just like anything else in life, you get out what you put in. For the individuals wanting to change and willing to put in the work, this program will change your life. It works if you work it!

The Agora House is for men who truly desire sobriety. A place to learn how to live sober and grow in their recovery. In my 18 months there, I worked with a sponsor in a 12 step fellowship, utilized the ability to work with a therapist for my deep routed issues and past traumas, worked a job to pay my own way through treatment (which was fairly priced), found healing in nature, attended group meetings and learned how to get and stay mentally and physically healthy, created new life skills, made new healthy friends, found new healthy hobbies, and made amends to family. This place helped me to develop the tools I still use today in my almost 6 years of sobriety! I will remember my time at Agora for the rest of my life! Great place to get sober!
