While facing incarceration in 2018, Spencer Kell decided to change his life and break free of a cycle of jail and addiction.
Spencer was granted bail to seek rehabilitation. He turned to The Salvation Army’s Booth Centre in Ottawa Canada and accessed the Stabilization addiction treatment program.
After getting clean, Spencer knew what direction he wanted to take. He was accepted into a community service worker program at a local college.
Spencer believes that if it wasn’t for The Salvation Army taking him in, he might not have had his freedom today.
Currently, he is preparing to open the Manie Daniels Rehab Centre in Maberly, Ont., which aims to provide addiction support to people awaiting trial. The center was named in honor of his close friend and former cellmate, Maine Daniels, who died of an overdose shortly after being released.
Spencer plans to incorporate lessons learned from his positive experience at the Booth Centre into his new initiative.
