The most important thing is to get well again
At Pathfinders our vision is to help women obtain a wonderful and abundant life of permanent sobriety by awakening their spirit.
After watching many years of my family struggle with being addicted to alcohol and drugs, in 1991, I found myself hopeless addicted to drugs. With a family member’s help, I was introduced to the fellowship of Narcotics Anonymous. My name is Rhonda Richardson, and I am a person in long term recovery. I have not found it necessary to use any drugs or alcohol since November 3, 1991. My desire is to help women addicted find that same path. My mission is to create a safe place for women coming out of treatment, coming through the court systems to acquire sobriety and maintain it through a path they have created and works for them.
