Bozeman

Erin P. has called Bozeman home since moving to Montana at 19. In her early twenties, she entered a relationship affected by alcoholism, shaped in part by the experiences and patterns she had grown up with. As the effects of the disease became increasingly unmanageable and began impacting her children, she came to Al-Anon feeling broken and out of ideas. Through six years in the program, Erin has learned to let go of what she cannot control, rebuild her self-esteem, and find emotional sobriety. Today, Al-Anon continues to give her the tools and support to navigate relationships, family, parenting, and co-parenting with greater grace, gratitude, peace, and hope.
