Because of you all at Harmony, I am celebrating 16 years of sobriety today! I walked in the doors at Harmony on Christmas Day 16 years ago, drunk and broken, and today I am sober and ALIVE, giving back to the world and living life one day at a time, THANK YOU!!!!!
My name is Carol B. I am a grateful alumna of Harmony. Before my admission to Harmony, my life was dominated by alcohol, cynicism, anxiety, and taking a big downward spiral. When my husband lovingly and painfully said he could no longer live like we were, he found help from a counselor who recommended Harmony. I was very scared but knew I couldn't continue living with alcohol and expect to live very long. After being at Harmony for two days, my husband was told by the insurance company that he would have to come to get me as they weren't going to cover any more treatment for me. I was in a panic as we couldn't pay on our own. One of the counselors took me to her office. She told me she would check to see if I could get some scholarship funds to stay longer. I became so frustrated and told her I would go home when he arrived. She told me to surrender and give it to God. Amazingly her phone rang about 30 seconds later. It was the scholarship office, and they said they would cover my stay for another week. I was in tears.
I stayed for three weeks with the insurance company deciding almost daily how long I could stay. I found a new way to live my life at Harmony. I found peace, serenity, and a spirituality that continues to grow.
This was almost two years ago. I will forever be grateful to Harmony, my husband, the staff, and the chance to be blessed with that scholarship. And I thank God. I now have a life I can be proud of, and my husband says he has his wife back. I am currently enrolled in training courses to become an addiction counselor and am a member of the Development Fund committee at Harmony. Now it is my turn to give back to Harmony.
To Provide the Foundation for Sustained Recovery from the Diseases of Alcohol and Drug Addiction.
In 1969, a group of local men discussed the need to help others in Estes Park who were struggling with the disease of alcoholism. Pooling their resources, they purchased a 42-acre parcel of land on Fish Hatchery Road, known as "Harmony Ranch." At it's inception, Harmony was a place where men could come dry out, attend AA meetings and then return home. Over time the original premise was expanded to include grouptherapy sessions, the expertise of a physician and a treatment protocol based on the Minnesota Model.
Beginning in 2008, Harmony expanded detox facilities and approaches to include Medication Assisted Treatment detox methods for opioid addicts. We have found this to be very helpful in assisting addicts through the very painful physical process of detoxing from these drugs.
Harmony has an outstanding program, spanning five decades of providing successful treatment for alcoholics and drug addicts. Throughout its history, Harmony has shown itself to be adaptable to social, economic, and moral trends within both the community at large and the treatment community specifically. Harmony continues to provide the tools needed for successful, ongoing recovery, utilizing evidence-based best practices in an unparalleled mountain setting at a moderate cost.
Today Harmony is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities and continues to be a state of the art, affordable, treatment program utilizing time-tested, evidence based, 12-step treatment model that addresses mind, body and spirit.
