Feeling overwhelmed and unsure of where to turn, *Alyssa* decided to take action.

The Stepping Into Action materials emphasized accountability and maintaining focus, which helped *Alyssa* stay on track. Dr. *Samantha Hayes*, an expert in substance abuse recovery, praised such programs, stating that they provide crucial structure and guidance.
