# Jason Hicks - The Healing Place

[Kentucky Housing Corporation](https://blog.kyhousing.org/blog/author/communicationskyhousing-org)  Jan 16, 2023 1:57:00 PM

![Jason at the Healing Place](https://blog.kyhousing.org/hs-fs/hubfs/20221114_114502.jpg?width=300&height=400&name=20221114_114502.jpg)

By the time Jason came to the Healing Place, he had damaged most of his close personal relationships. Now, a year later, having worked hard on recovery, he has earned a role as a peer mentor in the program and earned the opportunity to reconnect with his family. “Today, I get to help people,” he said about his role. “Everybody’s story is different, but if they can get anything from my story, it’s that it can be done.”
