PITTSBURG, Kan. — On the road to recovery, it can be difficult for one to see the light at the end of the tunnel with life’s twists, turns, and obstacles. However, through patience, persistence, and perseverance, three individuals took a massive life step Thursday evening, becoming the first graduates of the 11th Judicial District’s Recovery Court program. Established in 2024, the 11th Judicial District Recovery Court is a five-phase program designed to help people with non-violent drug problems.
