History and Recent Accomplishments

Since Free at Last opened its doors early in 1994, the agency has established a comprehensive community-based approach to prevention, intervention, treatment and long-term success services for a multi-ethnic minority population.

Free at Last’s programs have evolved to address needs and gaps in services. Recently, in response to the escalating cost of housing, Free at Last developed a transitional housing program to help treatment clients who are trying to restart their lives and establish a history of reliability and good credit.

Free at Last’s community-based model of providing essential services is evidenced by:

• The stability and success of Free at Last alumni who have stable employment, act as responsible parents and serve in community organizations.
• A successful collaboration with county agencies in reducing the number of new cases of HIV and reducing risk behaviors leading to HIV/STD through outreach and education.
• The reunification of families torn apart by addiction, and the benefits to children who finally have a stable home with a present and caring parent.
• The availability of alternatives for young people who have dropped out of school.
• Programs that have earned the confidence of the courts that continue to refer clients to Free at Last as an alternative to incarceration for drug-related offenses
• The decline in violence, drug traffic, and crime in the community, in part due to the presence of a strong group of people supporting recovery.
