Julie, we are so proud of you and your accomplishments! Julie recently graduated from our residential treatment program.

We asked Julie, "How do you feel you have grown or changed sine entering the program?" her response was "My confidence in myself is coming back!" and if that doesn't show what recovery can do!

We congratulate Julie and everyone else who has steps into our program and has gone through the steps!

"WisHope provided a safe and stable environment and the tools for my recovery." -Luke T

Luke wants everyone that is just starting their recovery journey that "The strongest thing you have done was to walk through the doors for treatment. The beginning is very hard but it does get better."

Recovery isn’t about becoming someone new — it’s about becoming who you were meant to be.

THIS is what recovery can do!

Charles runs our Wellbriety Meetings at the Baraboo Community Center every other Wednesday! Our next one is January 7, come say hi!

We are incredibly honored to celebrate Charles Jared Kagigebi for sharing his powerful story of resilience, recovery, and purpose and for being a continual part of his journey. With 19 years clean from narcotics and prescription drug abuse and 5 years sober from alcohol, Charles stands as living proof that recovery is not only possible—it’s life-changing.

From overcoming unimaginable loss and hardship to building a life rooted in integrity, service, and peace, Charles continues to lead by example. His commitment to recovery, his family, his culture, and his community shines through in everything he does—from his work and promotion in Quality Assurance, to his sober clothing brand Sober Vision Creationz, to his volunteer efforts and vision for Road 2 Healing, a nonprofit focused on saving lives and supporting recovery.

Charles reminds us that light truly exists at the end of the tunnel—and that castles can be built from even the hardest lessons. Thank you for your honesty, your heart, and your dedication to helping others find hope.

👏 We are proud of you, Charles, and grateful you shared your journey with us. Keep leading with love, peace, and purpose. 💙
