Kendl Ferencz is one of those indellible personalities that crop up through the process of recovery. Her life today is unrecognizable to the one she was living up until a few years ago. Kendl had been using drugs for years and had even relapsed during her first stay at Beit T'Shuvah. Today she is a Graphic Designer for BTS Communications and an example to the young women everywhere who are willing to take a step toward redemption.
