The Corona Self-Help Center (D.A.) is an organization that works with individuals and families suffering from substance abuse problems free of charge. D.A.’s recovery programs are drug-free residential settings, with treatment stages reflecting increased levels of personal and social responsibilities. With an approach similar to other 12-step programs, D.A. particularly serves those most in need. All D.A. representatives are former drug addicts who have found a new lease on life because of the spiritual component and programs offered to them by D.A. They will be passing a message and fundraising with the T-Shirts they print to support their cause next weekend at all the Masses.
