"I can honestly say it's been extremely educational." - KenKen has an MBA and a Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering from Sacred Heart University. As Vice President of an executive company, shoreline homeowner, with a wife and kids, Ken had the life. Then one day it all fell apart. He was let go from his job after 13 years.
Unsure of what to do or where to go, he turned to drinking. Ken was arrested for a DUI with a six month suspended sentence. He was sentenced to 18 months of probation and had his license suspended for a year.
He was ordered to take 15 classes with the Morris Foundation. There he began learning the important skills toward recovery, coping skills, and how to deal with personal problems. Still suffering from alcoholism he was sent to 25 days of rehab and then returned to the Morris Foundation for continued once a week classes. Ken likes going to Morris Foundation because he gets the support he needs and learns from others in similar situations. "I can honestly say it's been extremely educational." says Ken. Today, he shows up for classes he doesn’t even need to be at.
Ken is a success of the Morris Foundation and recommends the program to anyone who needs it. He has learned his lesson. Today unemployed and still without a license, Ken finds it difficult to receive income. When you pull up to an interview in someone else’s car you’re always asked what's wrong.
Ken's situation had cost him his marriage, seeing his children, and being employed once again. Ken regrets ever having driven drunk and admits it wasn't worth it.. Thanks to the Morris Foundation Ken has learned better ways to cope with life’s problems. He will regain control of his vehicle at the beginning of 2009 and is looking forward to a brighter future.
