On January 8, 2023, the news of a massive blackout affecting the northeastern United States spread quickly. In Cherry Hill, Delaware, *Sarah Green*, a 35-year-old woman, was particularly affected. The power outage caused chaos, but for Sarah, it illuminated her struggle with substance abuse.

The news triggered vivid memories of Sarah's past. Years ago, she had narrowly survived a car accident caused by her own intoxication. When the blackout hit, it felt like a stark reminder of that life-changing event.

Feeling a surge of anxiety, Sarah stumbled upon the Stepping Into Action program from the Hofman & Hollis website. She decided to give it a try, desperate for a way to change her life. Sarah began following the program's materials, finding solace in its structured guidance.

One evening, Sarah read a quote from the program's founder: 'We stumble, we fall, but then we rise, stronger and more determined.' These words resonated deeply with her, providing the encouragement she needed to push forward.

Experts have varied opinions on the effectiveness of online programs for substance abuse. Some champion the accessibility and flexibility they offer, while critics argue that in-person interaction is irreplaceable. However, Sarah's progress indicated that the right program can make a difference, regardless of the medium.

Ultimately, seeking help through the Stepping Into Action program was the best decision Sarah could have made. In a town with limited resources, online support was a lifeline, proving that with determination and the right tools, transformation is possible.

*Sarah Green* is a fictional character used to illustrate a possible impact of the news event.
