    Grant money for addictions
    Is there any money there for treatment for a cocaine addiction? He embelizzed from his job and we need to pay it back. Please try to answer ASAP as we have a short deadline for payback.

    Hello nancy:

    Nobody is going to give him money to repay his victims.

    As Excon pointed out, there are no grants available for paying back stolen funds. Sorry. As far as grants for addiction, I am not aware of any grant money available for that either. I guess your boyfriend will get all the free treatment for his drug habit in jail soon enough.

    Actually and I mean no offense but this is his crime and his responsibility to pay this back.
    He needs to be getting a job even if it is nothing but one of those temp agency or day work jobs and start making an effort.
    I am guessing he has not been to court yet?
    If that is the case he needs to show he is trying and making even a small attempt and effort at not only changing himself and dealing with his addiction but also in making attempts at paying his victims back.
    He needs to face it and man up to it and take responsibility
    If you and others bail him out he will never come face top face with his addiction and the issues it causes him and he will continue to do his dirt and get high safe in the fact that you and others will deal with it and cover it for him.
    Take a step back and let him deal with this. It is what he needs if he is ever going to face the fact that he has a addiction and that is a problem.

    I say this from experience. I have 13 years clean.
