When Melisa first entered CPA’s Project SAMH in 2001 she had a 10-year
cocaine dependency, two daughters to care for and
was close to being evicted from her apartment. The group counseling and
discussion sessions Melisa received through Project SAMH helped her confront
her substance abuse problems. She received more support through the
program’s acupuncture treatments that reduced her substance cravings.
Melisa has been cocaine-free now for more than three years. She is
moving to a new apartment that is closer to the program, has survived
problems with her health and has the patience and time to enjoy a wonderful
relationship with her daughters. Melisa is actively involved and volunteers on many committees.
