In Recovery Since 10/31/2012

My name is Kenajo B. I have been in recovery over 9 years now. My recovery date is October 31, 2012. I have had many attempts before this date at trying to find recovery without continuous success. My recovery path has been consistent effort in working on myself internally daily. I have found a home in a 12 step self help program that I attend regularly. I have a sponsor work the 12 step, step work. I have become a sponsor as well who helps guide other women through their programs. At 8 years into my recovery I became a peer support specialist with Prevent+Ed helping others in the community to reach their recovery goals. At 9 years into my recovery I became a substance use counselor working with the same treatment program I graduated from in 2015. I have built a beautiful life, have custody of my children, become a wife and step mom as well. I continue to move forward advocating for recovery and helping those in need.
