BEVERLY’S STORY
A story of recovery, restoration, and hope

My name is Beverly Rojas. I was born on January 1, 1978. I am an American Indian from Cherokee, North Carolina. Life was rough for me growing up; my mother and father were both addicts and were in and out of prison most of my life. At 13, I started smoking marijuana, and by 18 I was going to bars and clubs as if I were a grown-up.

At 21, I got pregnant with my first daughter and stopped partying for a little while. I was introduced to cocaine, got pregnant again, stopped, had the baby, became addicted to cocaine, and got pregnant for the last time.

After the birth of my 3rd daughter, I moved to Spartanburg. This was in the year 2000. In 2001, I was introduced to methamphetamine, and that was the beginning of a 26-year meth addiction. In and out of jail, on and off the streets.

I was arrested for the last time on July 8, 2025. This lady came to interview me to see if I was a good candidate for GoForth and for Drug Court. I got accepted into both programs. On November 18, 2025, GoForth took me into custody.

“This is the best thing that has ever happened to me. A few weeks ago, I celebrated a whole year in recovery. I am now doing things I never did before: working, going to church, and doing adult things I’ve always wanted to do.”

To all those out there suffering as I did, you just have to give it to God, take it one day at a time, and want it for yourself. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. You will learn a lot in your recovery program; I know I did and still am.

Always grateful, Beverly
