The new location for Fairbanks' La Verna Lodge for Women has opened to provide long-term residential care tailored to the needs of women overcoming substance use.

Scott Adams joined us on Recovery Talks Podcast to discuss the Men’s La Verna Lodge and the benefits and value of residential treatment.

My name is Hayley and I’ve been sober since June 25, 2015. I’m originally from Portland, Ind. I had a good childhood. I have two really great parents who’ve never had substance abuse issues. If we ever struggled, I wasn’t aware of it. Growing up we were always happy.
