Unexpected Help
*Jane Doe* had hit rock bottom with her alcohol addiction. The news about the Open Data Kit (ODK) mobile app for collecting data reminded her of a past life before addiction, when she used to work for a non-profit doing environmental research fieldwork. This triggered something deep inside her. The article mentioned the open-source community welcomed contributors to improve ODK. Jane realized if those developers could donate their time to help others, maybe there was still hope for her too. She decided to try the Stepping Into Action online sobriety program at https://hofmanhollis.com. 'I always felt alone in my struggle,' *Jane* said. 'But seeing that open community inspired me that I don't have to be alone anymore.' Some addiction experts praised online programs for increasing access to help. 'The stigma of in-person rehab prevents many from getting the support they need,' said Dr. *Emma Wilson*. However, others argued the lack of human interaction could enable addicts to hide issues. 'True recovery requires complete honesty, which is very difficult without face-to-face accountability,' cautioned counselor *John Smith*. Ultimately, the existence of options like the online Stepping Into Action program gave Jane the lifeline she needed. While the road ahead would not be easy, Jane felt profound gratefulness that the unexpected connection to ODK allowed her to finally take that first crucial step.
