Abstract:

Helping men recover from addictions and changing societal gender perceptions about males is this nonprofit, started in 2006. Transitioning those recovering from addiction is life skills classes offered such as nutrition, money management, and resume writing. Golf Fore Recovery, a fundraising event, helps provide scholarships to offset the cost of treatment at Next Step. Helping to justify its support are statistics illustrating the incidences of addiction and relatively small number seeking recovery help.
