KALAMAZOO, MI — It's a very precarious point in someone's life when they realize they need help.
They're addicted to a substance that's ruining their life, but they've found that motivation to get to recovery.
If they drive themselves, call a cab or an Uber, or have a friend or family member drive them, or they just can't get a ride, there could be any moment where they waver.
It would be best if they had a driver who'd say, "I was in your shoes. I know what you're going through. It's time to go."
Gadson Chris Pompey faced that moment himself, once. So he formed RSL Transportation LLC, a pilot program that he hopes can be an Uber for people looking for a ride to recovery.
RSL Transportation is a pilot program working with Community Healing Centers. Its goal is to get safe non-medical, recovery-oriented transportation for people seeking help. Once a person is in recovery, the service is still available to clients with rides to appointments.
