adults, families, and youth affected by addiction.

sDear Friends,

Poised, Positioned, Possibilities – I can’t help but think that these are the most appropriate and relevant words to describe the activities of 2014:

Poised, because we exhibited the type of steadfast stability that ensured quality services were provided to people in need;

Positioned, because we have maintained a sixty year history of offering those quality services in our current location; and

Possibilities, because of our uncompromising belief that recovery is real - as evidenced by the success stories found in this report.

We are happy to report that we made the successful transition from the Institute of Population Health (IPH – City of Detroit) to the Detroit Wayne Mental Health Authority (DWMHA – Wayne County), which resulted in a consistent 90-100% consumer capacity for Mariners Inn. In the tone of being in a poised position for success, we have also successfully implemented electronic health records to enhance excellent service delivery.

It is because of our innovative approach to treatment and recovery, our success in returning men to the community as clean and sober productive citizens, and our stellar reputation that Mariners Inn has been able to provide quality behavioral health services for ninety years.

The tireless ambassadorship, guidance, support, and leadership of our governing body strengthens our mission. The compassion, expertise, and professionalism of our staff are immeasurable. Our loyal supporters and committed stakeholders keep us grounded and appreciative of their altruism.

I implore you to visit our website to find out ways you can help us continue to provide quality behavioral health services to those in need. Thank you for believing in our mission, and thank you for helping us save lives.

We believe, with everything we do and say, that Recovery is Real … and Begins at Mariners Inn!

Succ

ess

With

in ClayClay has been a resident of Mariners Inn’s Extended Residency since March 2012. As the most senior member of the current residents, he has seen and been part of the many changes that have occurred in the housing program in that time.

In the beginning of Clay’s stay, behavioral changes in his recovery process were not a priority. His willingness to help and be positive to others was almost nonexistent. With continued time in recovery, the changes in Clay’s life have been significant. Not only has he remained drug free - he has constantly encouraged his fellow residents in their own personal journeys of recovery. He has upheld the integrity of the program and has represented the mission of Mariners Inn.

Clay has recently dealt with many medical challenges that have required multiple surgeries and extended hospital stays. Now that his health has improved, he is in the process of locating a permanent place of residence. He has stated that he will make it a priority to remain active and connected with Mariners Inn through the alumni program to remain on the right path, as well as to assist other men in recovery at Mariners Inn.

ChristopherChris came to Mariners Inn with an array of different issues - hisalcohol and drug use had spiraled out of control and he had no place to live. Chris had resorted to selling drugs to support his expensive habits; the criminal behavior had gotten so out of control that Chris realized he needed to change his life.

Chris entered our program in April 2014; from the beginning, he was very engaged in the process of recovery. In July 2014, Chris completed treatment and went on to our transitional housing program where he began working for The Professional Group. He has now worked for over a year as a custodian cleaning offices in downtown Detroit.

Chris recently acquired his own apartment on the west side of Detroit and received a promotion at work. Chris is doing very well for himself and has been in recovery for almost 18 months. Chris states that his time at Mariners Inn taught him how to be a man, how to take care of himself, how to take life more seriously, and how to fully take on all the opportunities life has in store.
