Building second chances, one life at a time.
At The Second Story Foundation, we believe in second chances and the power of transformation. Our mission is to support men in early recovery from severe substance use disorder by providing stability, purpose, and a path forward. Through meaningful work, structured community, and deep care, we create an environment where healing happens—not just for today, but for a lifetime.
Recovery is more than sobriety; it’s about rebuilding lives. Addiction leaves behind devastation—lost jobs, broken families, and profound isolation. The current system too often falls short in providing the tools necessary for lasting change. That’s why we focus on holistic rehabilitation, offering stable housing, real employment opportunities, and a brotherhood that fosters accountability and belonging.
At Second Story, no one walks this road alone. With the support of our foundation, men gain not only a place to stay but a place to grow. Through hard work and community, they reclaim dignity, rediscover purpose, and build a future filled with strength, stability, and hope. Transformation takes time—but here, every second is worth it.
