No Longer Bound (NLB) Thrift Store recently opened a location in Woodstock. No Longer Bound is a metro-Atlanta based non-profit dedicated to rescuing adult men from drug and alcohol addiction. All donations and proceeds from the sale of merchandise at NLB Thrift stay local and support men in the regeneration program at NLB.

For 25 years, NLB has been a light and resource in the deadly battle to save men from addiction.  Over 1,200 men have completed the NLB program since the organization was founded in 1991. Currently, there are approximately 42 residents in the regeneration program at NLB and ten men in the internship program. Each year, approximately 100 men will enter NLB, and approximately 70% will graduate free from addiction and ready for a second chance at life.

We are excited to expand into Cherokee County and bring the message of hope and that freedom from addiction is possible, said Edward Bailey, executive director of NLB. By donating furniture, clothing and household items to NLB Thrift and shopping at our beautiful thrift store, residents in this community will help us save lives.

Bailey also wants to get the word out that NLB is here as a resource should addiction strike close to home, threatening the lives of men in this community and to those seeking help.

The 10,000-square-foot store is located at 1910 Eagle Drive, Woodstock. It features an upscale thrift shopping experience for residents and local pick-up of furniture and larger collections of items.
