Fabian E Chavez

Fabian Chavez is a 23-year-old from Belen, New Mexico, with a story shaped by both struggle and resilience. He graduated from Belen High School, where he was known for his determination and commitment. After high school, Fabian enlisted in the Air National Guard, seeking to serve his country and build a future. His time in the Guard represented a major milestone in his life, but in early 2020, he was medically discharged due to health issues, an unexpected turn that set him on a difficult path.

In the wake of his discharge, Fabian faced an internal battle with addiction. What began as a way to cope with the stress and uncertainty of life quickly spiraled into a consuming issue. During this period, he experienced significant loss and heartbreak, which deepened the emotional toll of his struggles. The pain and suffering he witnessed, both personally and within his community, became a defining factor in his life. However, through sheer determination and a commitment to change, Fabian sought recovery. It was a long and challenging road, but his journey toward healing transformed him, teaching him resilience and the importance of self-worth.

Now in recovery, Fabian is focused on helping others who find themselves in similar circumstances. Having lived through the darkest moments of addiction, he has developed a deep empathy for those who are still struggling. He understands the heartbreak that addiction causes, not just to the individuals affected but to their families and communities as well. Through his experiences, Fabian has become passionate about spreading awareness, offering hope, and showing others that recovery is possible. His goal is to use his story to inspire, educate, and support those who are fighting their own battles with addiction. Fabian is committed to being a source of strength and encouragement for anyone looking to take their first step toward recovery.
