A Changing Point for a Greenland Station Resident
Chris Harper*, a lifelong resident of Greenland Station, New Hampshire, opened their phone on November 15, 2022, to find an article discussing newly passed legislation enhancing mental health services. To most, this may have seemed like just another piece of news, but for Chris, it struck a deep and personal chord. Many years ago, Chris had struggled with alcohol addiction, a battle fought with little local support. Seeing this new legislation reminded Chris of those difficult times when help was hard to find. Old memories came flooding back, and with them, a renewed sense of urgency to address any lingering issues. Motivated by the news, Chris stumbled upon the Stepping Into Action program found on hofmanhollis.com. The program seemed tailor-made for the self-reflection and structured steps Chris needed. As Chris dove deeper into the material, it felt like a guide through the dark corridors of past struggles. Chris recalled a powerful quote from one of the program's creators, *Jordan Hollis*: 'It's never too late to step into action, and every small step counts.' These words resonated deeply, motivating Chris to continue the journey towards self-improvement. Experts are divided on the efficacy of such online programs. Dr. *Pamela Smith* argues that online resources can provide accessible help in remote areas, while Dr. *James Randle* contends that face-to-face interaction is irreplaceable in addiction recovery. Despite the debate, for Chris, the Stepping Into Action program was a beacon of hope. Chris continued to follow the steps outlined in the program, finding solace in the structured approach. Reflecting on the journey, Chris concluded that seeking help was a profoundly good decision. 'Had it not been for the news article and then the Stepping Into Action program,' Chris thought, 'I don't know where I'd be today.' In the small town of Greenland Station, connecting to an online resource made all the difference, proving that sometimes the best way to find help is to reach beyond the local terrain.
