DYC Upstate NY

“Before walking through the doors of DYC, I was a lost soul. A shell of a human being with no sense of purpose in life. I was drained of all hope. Months later, I can confidently say I’ve never been happier. My heart is filled with love and my thoughts have never been sharper. DYC brought me back to life. I’ll forever be grateful for this beautiful organization.”

“Growing up, I had so many dreams and so much potential for the future. Just as I thought I was going to lose all that, I came into DYC and now I have the opportunity to achieve all these goals and to put all that potential to use.”

“After many years of pain and suffering, I was fed up. I lost everything and everyone I loved. I knew a change needed to happen, but I didn’t know where to start. Unfortunately, my friend passed away from an overdose and a family friend recommended me and another one of my friends to Dynamite during the funeral. We immediately jumped on the opportunity and thankfully years later I’m still here: alive, healthy and sober. I can’t explain how happy I am and thankful for Dynamite.”

“Prior to Dynamite, I was broken. I had zero direction and my life had lost meaning. I was in an endless cycle of misery. Dynamite lent me a helping hand and I have never looked back. My gratitude to them is immense.”

“DYC has given me a new life and a better relationship with myself, my friends and family. I felt like a lost cause most of my life, hopeless and damaged. I never could have imagined the staff could have given me so much love and care. I was brought back to the person I lost, the joy I had for the world returned, as well as hopes and dreams for the future.”
