BOUNSA my path to recovery started here
Chaos and violence shaped my childhood, and gangs became my family. Anger and addiction followed me into jail and eventually prison. After a friend was killed and I faced 36 months behind bars, someone mentioned Minnesota Adult & Teen Challenge. I didn’t know what treatment was—but I said yes. Walking through those doors changed everything. Today, I work for Teen Challenge, serve my church, and live with purpose. I’m present for my kids—and finally the man I hoped to be.
DAVID my path to recovery started here

I learned how to feel, heal, and live differently. God restored my marriage, my family, and my purpose. Today, I help others break the cycle I once lived in.
ROLANDO my path to recovery started here

Today, I’m sober, grounded in faith, and pursuing my future with purpose.
MARISOL my path to recovery started here
After moving from Panama to the U.S. as a child, I carried deep feelings of abandonment and searched for belonging in addiction. Over time, drugs cost me everything—even my children. In prison, I hit rock bottom and signed away my parental rights. Then Minnesota Adult & Teen Challenge showed up. Through their unconditional love and faith-based care, I found healing after 25 years of addiction. Today, I’m sober, reunited with my children, and living in freedom.
BRIANNA my path to recovery started here
Addiction led me to a hospital bed and a coma from a life-threatening infection. Even then, I couldn’t stop using. I felt broken, alone, and too far gone. After leaving the hospital, I tried to use again—but nothing happened. In that moment, God met me and showed me a different path. Through Minnesota Adult & Teen Challenge, I found love, hope, and healing. Today, I’m restored, reunited with my daughter, and helping others find freedom.
