CTBR Releases 2025 Annual Report Highlighting Transformational Growth

NEW YORK - Nov. 20, 2025 - PRLog -- Came to Believe Recovery (CTBR) announces the release of its 2025 Annual Report, a comprehensive overview of a milestone year marked by expansion, impact, and continued commitment to helping individuals find freedom from addiction through a spiritual, action-based approach to the original Twelve Steps.

"This was a year of bold growth and deeper reach," said Tom Williams, CEO of Came to Believe Recovery. "We've seen unprecedented demand for our retreats, new partnerships across ministry and recovery networks, and measurable transformation in the people we serve. The 2025 Annual Report tells the story behind those numbers—stories of real people finding hope, purpose, and new life."

Highlights from the 2025 Annual Report include:

• Record Participation: CTBR retreats expanded across the country, with increased attendance and new locations added in collaboration with The Salvation Army's Adult Rehabilitation Centers and regional church partners.
• Program Innovation: CTBR launched new discipleship pathways, including Recovery Assurance curriculum.
• The Steve Foreman Legacy Campaign: In honor of CTBR's late founder, the Legacy Campaign inspired broad community support, advancing CTBR toward long-term sustainability and expanded services.
• Financial Transparency: This year's report provides a clear picture of CTBR's financial health, donor support, and stewardship of resources.
• Stories of Transformation: Testimonials from The Salvation Army officers and volunteers highlight the real-life impact of CTBR's approach.

2025 also marked the first-ever CTBR Fall Benefit, held inside the historic Calvary Episcopal Church in New York City—home of the Rev. Sam Shoemaker, whose ministry deeply shaped the early Alcoholics Anonymous movement. The event galvanized new supporters and celebrated CTBR's role in extending that legacy to communities facing addiction today.

With new curriculum releases, expanded retreat partnerships, digital resources, and a growing national footprint, CTBR is poised for its most impactful year yet. The Annual Report outlines key goals for the year ahead, including scaling strategic partnerships, increasing program access for underserved populations, and strengthening volunteer leadership pathways.
