EXPERIENCE, STRENGTH, & HOPE
from those that have come before you...
"Upon entering Lord Fairfax House I was an addict who was desperate, homeless and needed a chance to rebuild my life, this program gave me that chance. They introduced me to a Twelve Step program, gave me structure and stability, taught me about sober living and how to become a productive member of society. LFH saved my life."

"The house saved me from living on the streets, drinking, and committing suicide. They provided emotional support and structure."
Victoria A. - 2016 Resident
I would like to take the time to say how much I appreciate the Lord Fairfax House and everyone involved with the program. Choosing to go through this program is the best decision I've ever made. Ive struggled with drugs and alcohol for more than half my life and I honestly never seen myself living a clean and sober life. Coming to the LFH has changed that and has given me a life that I never would have dreamed of. Dave and Kelly were so supportive of myself and everyone there, always offering to help us in anyway possible. Doing 90 meetings in 90 days afforded me the opportunity to build relationships and really establish a lasting bond with the people that make up Winchester's recovery community. The people I went through the program with are people that I still share very close bonds with today. I would, and do, recommend LFH to anyone who is struggling with addiction and feels like they are lost and without hope. Dave and Kelly and LFH will give you the direction and guidance necessary to finally make a change in your life, as well as surround yourself with people who share the same goal. I am forever grateful to them and the Lord Fairfax program. Thanks for giving me my life, because that truly is what they did. They helped me to finally have a real life that I can be proud of, that my family can be proud of, and a life that I am finally happy living. Words can't express my gratitude. Thanks again!
