Like most of us, Kyle's addiction had a stronghold on him.

They helped him get a solid foundation under his feet and now Kyle can do the same with those who walk through Jenna's front door!  Jenna's Promise:  "JENNA’S PROMISE IS TO HELP PEOPLE WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS Our mission is to create a network of support that will help people suffering from substance use disorder.
