Jason's Story

Jason White, electrician and former rock star hopeful, shares his story of substance use, addiction, and the sharp turn that snatched him out of a sinking darkness, showing him a better way of being. Like many people’s stories contain powerful moments of change, Jason’s includes a moment of divine intervention, followed up by an unlikely confirmation days later that played out on a tour bus in stopped traffic in the middle of the Trans Canada Highway. With a film crew on board the tour bus, you can still watch this music video that captured the moment and catch a glimpse of Jason at this point in his life at https://youtu.be/o1__RgU7WD4?si=46jZipiNpJSpuxm6Jason ties up his story with heartfelt outreach to other men who are struggling with mental health and substance use.
