I'm currently residing in an Oxford House but my debt is already up & I have an interview finally but this is literally just a House with a bunch of addicts/alcoholics that have no supervision & honestly just rely on some street laws, we all need a home & not everyone has an income.

I'm in an Oxford House now and last time I went to an actual recovery home in Jacksonville Illinois and I was very successful in my progress there. Not so much where I am here cause expectations are higher for us to pay and if we don't we end up homeless on the streets all over again.
