THE ULTIMATE RESPONSIBILITY OF CHANGING CULTURE LIES WITHIN US. THE MOST EFFECTIVE MEANS TO CHANGE CULTURE, OR CHANGE SOME OF THE SOCIALLY ACCEPTED NORMS WITHIN ANY SETTING, IS TO GET THE TRAINING TO INDIVIDUALS THROUGH SELF-AWARENESS, AS WELL AS TO MODEL AND ASSIST IN FACILITATING A POSITIVE BEHAVIOR CHANGE IN GENERAL. WE MUST CHANGE OUR THINKING BY PROVIDING A DRUG/ALCOHOL/BEHAVIORAL, AND SELF-AWARENESS PROGRAM WHICH PROMOTES WELLNESS OF THE MIND, BODY, AND SPIRIT OF EVERY PERSON. THIS WILL HELP EACH INDIVIDUAL TO OBTAIN THEIR HUMAN POTENTIAL FOR A POSITIVE LIFESTYLE. WE MUST UNDERSTAND THAT SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND/OR DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR STEMS FROM DEEPER AND WIDER PROBLEMS IN EACH INDIVIDUAL. BREAKING FREE HAS THE ABILITY TO ALLOW THE INDIVIDUAL TO LOOK INTO THEMSELVES, THIS IS WHY BREAKING FREE HAS OPTIONS FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL TO EXPLORE BASED ON THEIR NEEDS. WITH THE INDIVIDUAL ADDRESSING THE PROBLEMS THAT HAS CAUSED THEM TO CONTINUE TO USE DRUGS, ALCOHOL, AND/OREXHIBIT DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR, THEY CAN CHANGE THEIR THOUGHT PROCESS WHICH ALLOWS A STRONG FOUNDATION FOR LONG-TERM RECOVERY.
