“I went to RAMAR to get out of jail. By the time I left, they got me out of my mental
prison. I am now free and can begin to become the person I am meant to be.”

I was homeless and destitute 60 days ago. Today I have a job, a home, and a team of professionals who care about my life

J.P., Client

Know that if you choose RAMAR that it will definitely change your life completely for the better. I never thought in my 36 years of living I could stay out of jail and stay sober. Now I’m two years clean, have two jobs, my own place, and a life worth living.
