Bringing Hope Behind Bars: Serenity Center Leads 12-Step Recovery at EBR Parish Prison

Bringing Hope Behind Bars: Serenity Center Leads 12-Step Recovery at EBR Parish Prison

The Serenity Treatment Center of Louisiana is proud to extend its mission of healing and transformation beyond its walls and into the community. Recently, our Development Representative and Counselor, Mario Mendizabel, brought a message of hope to inmates at the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison, facilitating a 12-step Recovery Course rooted in the principles of Recovery Dynamics.

This powerful program is designed to help individuals suffering from substance abuse understand the process of recovery and discover a new way of living. Through Mario’s compassionate leadership and dedication, inmates are gaining valuable tools to address addiction, rebuild their lives, and embrace lasting change.

“Many of these individuals have never been introduced to the possibility of recovery,” said Mario. “We’re not just teaching steps—we’re showing them that freedom is possible, no matter where they are.”

The Serenity Center is committed to offering support to anyone affected by addiction—whether inside or outside correctional walls. If you or someone you love is struggling with substance abuse, help is available.

Hope and healing are just a phone call away.
