In 1968, José Juan García founded Hogar CREA. The acronym is for a Spanish phrase, comunidad de reeducación para adictos meaning 'community for the re-education of addicts'; crea is also a word meaning 'creates', and Hogar Crea translates to 'Home Creates'.
Those who enter the program do not have to pay a fee, but must agree to the program's strict rules. Breaking a drug habit is not easy and those who enter the program must adopt new habits which the program promotes as conducive to recovery.
Participants were required to attend church services on Sundays until a court ruling changed that.[1] Participants are known for selling desserts such as caramel custards. They also wash cars and do community service. The program is funded by both the United States federal government and the Puerto Rican government.[2][3]
