From Drugs back to Life

Belarus

Inessa has finished her rehab program. By now she is living in a Third-Stage House and has found a job as a sales assistant.

"It is my dream that one day I will become a drug rehabilitation worker and help others", says Inessa about her future.

In Third-Stage Houses, former addicts practice how to apply in their everyday life what they have learned in rehab. Since the leaders of the Third-Stage Houses have themselves completed rehab and follow-up and are now in regular employment, they can easily put themselves in the shoes of the former addicts and show possible solutions.
