Edgardo was the inaugural patient admitted to Root Center’s very first Residential Treatment Facility—and he also became the program’s very first graduate.
His journey is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, and that hard work, determination, and support can lead to lasting change. We are incredibly proud of all Edgardo has accomplished and deeply grateful that he chose to share his story with us. Thank you, Edgardo, for your honesty, courage, and for inspiring others on their own path to recovery.
