What Former Patients Are Saying
“Throughout this journey, I’ve had the chance to help and give hope to many loved ones still struggling, and in December 2024, I celebrated 10 years of continuous sobriety. I continue to bring the same passion and dedication to supporting the staff and patients in our Pinelands family.”
B.B., former patient & employee
“What stood out the most during my time at Pinelands was the incredible support I received from the staff and fellow patients… I am so deeply grateful for the compassionate people who guided me through those challenging days and showed me that recovery is not just possible — it’s worth every step.”
C.A., former patient
“Today I don’t run. I have problems, but I have the tools necessary to handle what comes my way without running back to my old solution. I owe so much of that to the staff at Pinelands for all the chances you have given me, as well as all the tools I have finally been able to implement in my daily life.”
