Chelsea Long
I am originally from Baltimore City Maryland and I am a mother to 2 little boys and I came to South Florida to get clean. I actually got clean at Better Tomorrow Treatment Center so I am an alumni from this program I successfully completed this program a little over 2.5 years ago and now I work here as a case manager for addicts that sit in the same group rooms I once sat in. I came back to work here so I could show the people that come to us for help that they can do this and one day be successful like I did. I want to help people like the people who worked at Better Tomorrow helped me when I was once a client. I want to give away what was given to me which was freedom from addiction. This career is my passion and I love my job. I am coming up on 3 years clean & sober. And I am proud of the woman I am today.
