Jordan Remple
Jordan Remple of Canmore, Alberta says AARC helped him get his life drug- and alcohol-free. He started using drugs at age 12 or 13. He tried to get help through counseling and therapists, but nothing helped. He entered AARC when he was 19 years old and graduated after eight months. He now works there as a peer counselor.
