The Ed Keating Center

I didn’t stay sober after I completed their program. I ask you who’s fault was that ? It certainly wasn’t theirs. I made the decision to pick up. They gave me direction, but I made a uturn. For a long time I had a resentment against Jack Smith. However all along the resentment was against myself. If you truly want sobriety, if you truly want recovery, if you are 100% done, then Jack Smith can give you the direction you need. For what he taught me I am truly grateful.

I am alumni of the Jean Marie house from 2012. The Keating center put me on the path to have the life I have today. They save lives on a daily basis. Forever grateful.

For me The Ed Keating Center, helped me save my life and marriage. It taught me what I need to do to get sober and stay sober. My sobriety date is Sept 9 2012. The Ed Keating Center showed me how to hold this date. They also gave me a place to lay my head down when nobody wanted me. It was literally the last house on the block for me. It was structured well for A community living environment. We kept it clean and taught how to be a productive member of society.

This place is one of the worst in Cleveland the people that run it don't give two craps about the men LIVING there ..I have been a past client more then a few times. They treat you like a slave a. Throw you out for nothing .I have a conversation with a friend that is right now in ICU because he went here for help an in his words " there was to many drugs there " so he left an now has overdosed an is in ICU not expecting to make it out! The person that runs this place took my daughter's car off the lot illegally an had it crushed at the scrap yard. He has been caught 2 times selling food from the Cleveland food bank an now these guys can not even get a decent amount of food . They Also advertise illegally they are not a treatment center ..which is in direct violation. Of Ohio revised code . Get this place in order.

Great place to start new beginnings. Groups are very helpful. Showers and bathrooms are very clean. Food is exceptional. Staff and paitents are kind and welcoming. Highly recommend.
