My boyfriend and I both were at FARC for almost 3 months and I thank God every day for bringing Linda, Alex, Tali and the rest of the staff into our lives.

I can’t say enough good things about the people who work there, they are such kind, caring, and a compassionate group of wonderful people!! If you or a loved one is looking for treatment, please, give them a call. The family environment and one on one care makes them a cut above the rest.](https://www.google.com/search?q=Florida+Addiction+and+Recovery+Center&oq=&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBggBEEUYOzIGCAAQRRg5MgYIARBFGDsyBwgCEAAYgAQyBggDEEUYOzIHCAQQABiABDIGCAUQRRg8MgYIBhBFGDwyBggHEEUYPNIBCDI3NTBqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x88d904051c38959b:0x47d0033b2b723232,1,,,,) [Caleb F Patients 4 years ago I was a client at FARC and I just celebrated 4 years clean. First things first, if you need help reach out do not waste anymore time!! Getting clean is a personal journey so treatment is what you make of it. No treatment center is perfect and it's not on the treatment center to maintain OUR long term recovery. That being said, I am grateful everyday that FARC gave me a safe place to land so I could begin my journey of laying the foundation of my recovery.](https://www.google.com/search?q=Florida+Addiction+and+Recovery+Center&oq=&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBggBEEUYOzIGCAAQRRg5MgYIARBFGDsyBwgCEAAYgAQyBggDEEUYOzIHCAQQABiABDIGCAUQRRg8MgYIBhBFGDwyBggHEEUYPNIBCDI3NTBqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x88d904051c38959b:0x47d0033b2b723232,1,,,,) [Jessica C Patients FARC is a wonderful place. I arrived here just under a month ago and the therapists, staff and community here have lifted me up and helped me develop a sense of self that I have never had before. People who have never entered this program should not be commenting on this page and making up lies about it (Tara) and the other negative comment was from a young man who entered the program with a terrible anger problem and didn’t know how to control it. Even after he punched walls and threw pictures down, throwing a temper tantrum, the owner had enough kindness and love in her heart to allow him and his pregnant girlfriend to remain here.](https://www.google.com/search?q=Florida+Addiction+and+Recovery+Center&oq=&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBggBEEUYOzIGCAAQRRg5MgYIARBFGDsyBwgCEAAYgAQyBggDEEUYOzIHCAQQABiABDIGCAUQRRg8MgYIBhBFGDwyBggHEEUYPNIBCDI3NTBqMGo3qAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x88d904051c38959b:0x47d0033b2b723232,1,,,,)
