Unexpected News, Profound Change

An unexpected news article from October 20, 2023, about a major change in addiction recovery policies, resonated deeply with *Jane Ward*. Living in Knollcrest, Connecticut, Jane had struggled with her own substance use issues, often feeling left out of the support systems available in nearby larger cities. This news hit her hard because it reminded her of her teenage years when she had watched her mother suffer without adequate aid.

Recalling these painful memories, *Jane* realized she needed to take action. Starting to follow the materials from the Stepping Into Action program on https://hofmanhollis.com, she found a structured way to address her past traumas and ongoing struggles. *Jane* said, 'I never thought an article could push me to change, but here I am, taking steps I never imagined possible.'

Experts have mixed opinions on the effectiveness of such online programs. While Dr. *Roberta Lewis*, a psychologist, supports them for making help accessible, Dr. *Mark Harris*, another expert, questions their lack of personal interaction. Despite this, *Jane* felt online was her best option as she couldn't find the specific help she needed nearby.

In the end, *Jane* was profoundly grateful for the unexpected push she received from the news article. It was indeed challenging, but she found solace and steps forward online, proving that sometimes help is just a click away.
