My name is Jose “Enrique” and I started my addiction recovery with the Mission in 2019, in one of their Sober Living homes. Through my rehabilitation, I became a Resident Assistant in one of the Mission’s Bridging homes. With perseverance and a good work ethic, I applied for a full-time position as a Peer Navigator and have been working as an employee since September 2020. I am happy to give back to my community alongside the Rescue Mission.

Being able to give back is the best feeling. I can relate to others going through similar situations. It feels good to share my experience and be part of someone’s journey to better themselves.
