Absolutely enough can’t be said positive about Racing for Recovery! I arrived in September ‘22 & am still on my journey…. There are too many benefits to put into words! The trauma therapy is by far top notch none the less the daily life lessons in self discovery! And that’s just a piece of this program. Because of their guidance regarding health, wellness, & nutrition I’ve lost 72lbs in the past 13 months and am striving for more! I have my health and agility back!!!! I am forever grateful and plan on giving back what was freely given to me! I look forward towards continuing to have them be a big piece of my life. Love to ALL the staff there!

I can not say enough about Racing ! I have a different outlook – I live in Arizona and have a daughter who was struggling with addiction for over a decade/ she had been in a couple of programs in Tucson where she had failed – unfortunately these programs made her feel imprisoned. We (her family) were frightened we would loose her completely to her addiction. My son – my daughter’s brother convinced us to get her on a one way plane to Toledo where he lived and he promised to get her help with Racing- long story short / We have our Mandy back !! She is such a beautiful woman and after being in the program for over a year has been brought back to us healthy (mind and soul) ! And She now has a beautiful family – and new baby boy !! She and her boyfriend have overcome so much and have so much to be thankful/proud and grateful for!!! Thank you Todd !!! All my prayers were answered because of what you have accomplished in Racing for Recovery ! I will forever be thankful to you and the mission that you have created !! God bless you !!!

Not only is Racing for Recovery the best choice I’ve made for my continued sobriety but it’s the best choice I’ve made for myself! The staff not only care about our future away from substances, they also care about our mental health and well being! Being given the tools to succeed and genuinely cared about here is the reason I wouldn’t recommend going anywhere else!!

Will always be grateful for my time with Racing for Recovery. This “life style” Changes and saves lives. Todd created something amazing and helped me sustain my sobriety for about 18 months before I left. If I were to recommend any treatment or recovery program to someone getting out of “30 day or longer detox program, Racing for Recovery would definitely be the one! Honestly, its a place for the ones that are done..and can handle freedom, your cellphone, and being treated like and independent adult. If your not ready for that, go check out Zeph. You make your owm choices and they help teach and provide you with ways to handle lifes hardships without using, through a healthy lifestyle. YOUR CHOICE OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. they offer yoga pallates and crossfit almost everyday. They dont force you to do all of them. They want you to find what works for YOU. And build routine and consistency. And when u dont have that… Well we know what happens…..

I couldn’t not share a little of my experience with this establishment. It has been nothing but beneficial for my life. I’ve struggled with addiction and have been through other programs in the past which also has pushed me in the right direction but only to a degree. Racing for Recovery helps me to focus more on the fact that being an addict was a thing of my past. I don’t have to be that today. Todd has really helped me focus on the individual I am and the great possibilities there are for my future. With the personal level I’m on with my case manager (Jeff),it’s easy to get comfortable with opening up and helping me to find solutions for the issues at hand that I’m facing. I recommend this place to anyone that wants to get themselves back and better. Thank you
