Audio slide show: “Breaking the chains of addiction”
Beit T’Shuvah, a Mid-City Los Angeles synagogue and rehab center catering to a mostly Jewish clientele, leans on spirituality and the Torah to heal addiction. The facility houses 120 men and women who come from all corners of society. They include heroin junkies, alcoholics, sex addicts and gamblers. Passover was a chance to reflect on how far they’ve come.
