We believe innovation is essential to change how we view and treat addiction and mental health issues. We also believe peer support is a crucial part of the continuum of care.

For our team of volunteers and recovery coaches, serving our community is not just “a job” but a passion. Many of us consider it a calling. We are a team that strives for excellence in all we do as part of destigmatizing the chronic condition of addiction and treating people with dignity and respect. We support each other to serve our fellow travelers on the pathway to recovery, wherever they may be.
