"I am writing ... To express my gratitude [to you] for saving my life. I was in front of you for my 3rd DWI in 2006 - I have been sober now four years. I had tried almost everything and could not quit, until you helped me understand I was not a bad person. I cannot express how much you changed my whole life and me. Thank you!"
From a letter from former successful probationer, Troy - March 2010
