Recovery Lead

Who is a Recovery Lead?

“A life lost”

The Recovery Lead provides administrative, recovery, and spiritual oversight for the House, and also oversees the day-to-day Resident adherence to the culture and expectations, alongside the Spiritual Lead. The Recovery Lead has personally journeyed through all the stages of recovery and is given a platform from which to assist others in that same journey. The recovery practices cultivated over time become further solidified as they are shared. Though a good portion of the role is upholding the administrative side of the House, the majority of the influence is derived from a life modeled before the Residents day in and day out. A lifestyle of sobriety is what each is after.
