“Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm… As you grow older you will discover that you have two hands. One for helping yourself, the other for helping others.” . . . . Audrey Hepburn
How can I help Second Chance?
We hope you share our vision of helping others. A vision where the Palm Beach County Community as a whole – including individuals, businesses, educational facilities, city and county government – embraces and supports individuals in recovery so they can find renewed meaning and purpose in their lives while becoming responsible, sober, contributing members of society.
A second chance doesn’t happen by chance. And it is the community that benefits the most by providing a second chance to individuals serious about their long term recovery . . . one person at a time. We hope you can invest in Second Chance by donating, volunteering, or advising us.
