It is the staff at Recovery Revolution that makes our program vibrant and successful. Recovery Revolution operates by using a team approach. Many times our Recovery Support Staff are the first face that new people to recovery see.
It is imperative to have a welcoming and knowledgable staff to answer questions, complete screenings, and work alongside our active clients. They are also individuals that go out in the community and assist with events and help reduce stigma.

When asked about her work experience with RR, she replied, “I immediately began loving my job from the beginning. One of the things that stood out to me was from the moment I walked through the door, I felt comfortable. Everyone that works here goes above and beyond to help those suffering from an addiction. No one is ever turned away that truly wants help, even if they are unable to pay. RR makes it possible for all to get the help they need. A great example solidifying what a great place RR is to work for – most of the staff employed at RR have been here for many years and plan to retire from this organization!”
