For the past 50 years, individuals with no money or no insurance have been denied help in America. In 1994, our Founder, Jim deVarennes, had seen enough. After getting clean and sober, and seeing what recovery was like firsthand, he left his successful insurance career to start Peachford House. It was the first of its kind and provided residential recovery to people suffering from addiction, regardless of their ability to pay. The first location was a 5-bed facility in Atlanta, which quickly grew to 60 beds becoming one of the largest facilities in Georgia. Peachford's leadership team quickly realized that many recovering addicts faced major obstacles in obtaining employment. They added a jobs program, including Career Advocates, to assist in job readiness and placement, as well as transportation services and a life skills program.
