Surprise Fatherhood Helps B.C. Man Find the Strength to Get Sober

Jon Armstrong transformed his life from a homeless drug addict in Port Coquitlam to a sober employee living with his family in Abbotsford by 2025.
Armstrong and his partner decided to keep their unborn child and sought local help after facing addiction, homelessness, and difficulty finding support programs.
With the assistance of Abbotsford's Salvation Army team, including Barbara, Cindy, and Al Breitkreuz, Armstrong's wife began her recovery journey late in pregnancy and achieved sobriety before giving birth.
Armstrong expressed that helping just a single individual realize recovery is achievable is enough motivation for him, and he credited his son as a key inspiration behind his dedication to staying sober.
Now drug-free for over three years, Armstrong works at Salvation Army's Centre of Hope and uses his experience to help others facing addiction and homelessness.
