From addiction to mental health

restoring Lives and Relationships, Vance Inspires was created for you, your family, friends and loved ones everywhere!

JR HIGH & HIGH SCHOOL

This program format has been designed for school assemblies and community groups, with the focus of relating Vance's story to school-aged kids 6-12 grade nationwide. Following a 2-5 min highlight film Vance's NFL career and journey to sobriety, Vance touch's on these topics, domestic violence, drunk driving, gateway drugs, peer pressure. Vance will then field questions from the audience.

Keynote

In this very personal presentation, Vance will share his story in a brutally honest format and transparency. Starting with his toxic childhood environment in Trenton, New Jersey. His athletic prowess landing him on the biggest and brightest stages; including the NCAA Track & Field Championships, the Pan American games, and ultimately the NFL gridiron. His speed on the field was matched by an equally fast paced and chaotic lifestyle on the field. Unfortunately, he repeated the cycle of his youth; failed relationships, alcoholism, addiction and 26-day alcohol induced coma.

Christian Speaker

Vance loves people, especially those who face situations in life that leaves them hopeless, battling life and situations that bankrupts the spirit. When your searching for a speaker who has achieved the highest levels of athletics & business, only to find it all loss because of the surpassing worth ok knowing Christ Jesus, then Vance is your next speaker! Exploring Spirituality as part of a larger mind/body/soul awareness, motivating the audiences, congregation, fellowship retreat, or students with Uplifting, Inspiring Motivation.

I want to Thank U so Much just for taking the time to talk to me.....
There's so many people out there and i'm just one broken soul, who isn't anyone special i truly appreciate you just giving me hope. The road has been so long and so hard and just the few minutes we spoke made me feel like maybe there is life out there for me still to live? Maybe i can do some good and give my kids a reason they'd be proud of me.
I really feel to heal i need to help others but can barely help myself at this point! I cant continue to live feeling this way! I just wont make it! I could go on and on but i know your busy so ill just leave it here and hope maybe there is a miracle waiting for me and somehow i will find some happiness in all this pain?
Looking forward to hearing from u!!
Thank you!!

Hope all is well. My name is Sal Viscount. I went through treatment back in June. I'm currently living in the Boynton Beach area and just celebrating 8 months of sobriety. I'm reaching out to thank you for all the kind words you offered me during my stay. I would love to come up and visit and the patients sometime soon. Recovery has been an amazing journey so far and I would love to share my experience with the patients and explain what has worked for me.

Hi I'm Brandons mom. I just wanted you to know that Brandon was inspired by your story. One of his most coveted possessions coming home as the card you gave him. Thank you so much for the help you and the rest of the staff gave my son. Its good to see his smile again. By the way, he's into football now. That's just a bonus for us. Cheer a little for the Seahawks! Anita Springer.

Vance, Last year in November I was in treatment. I attended all of your meetings that you spoke in, and I have to say you helped me a lot. I am proud to say that I am almost 11 months clean after a set back, but things are going really great I would love to talk to you but in any case I just wanted to stop by, show you some love, and let you know you inspired me. Thank You Vance Cody Payne
