I came to Lancaster County in 2011 for a second chance, and I owe my life to the unity, recovery and service I was exposed to here. By helping and being helped I came alive again, and the drive to give back was born. We identified the principles that form the cornerstone of lifelong sobriety, and with the help of friends and colleagues, we opened our inaugural men's recovery residence in 2017. It's working, and we're thrilled to partner with providers throughout the country to give people a real chance at revitalizing their lives.

"I’m a lifelong resident of Lancaster PA. I was born and raised here and I’ve seen the effects of addiction first hand. My family life was fraught with early hardships, from my mother dying when I was young to a father who struggled with alcoholism. I had my own demons, addictions, and challenges too. Cornerstone is a labor of love for me. It was the deaths of two close friends that compelled me to manifest this vision: that nobody in Lancaster who seeks recovery need die in the street, away from family, shut out and cut off from a life of meaning and purpose.
