Today marked the last day at Discovery Place for our Long Term Program Director, Austin Varipapa. Over the last four years, Austin has been more than just a colleague; he has been a pillar of our community, impacting the lives of hundreds of men and their families.

The Austin embarking on this new chapter is not the same person who arrived five years ago as a Guest. His journey is a powerful testament to what is possible through a dedicated program of recovery. While he may be moving on professionally, he will always be a part of the Discovery Place family.

We love you Austin!
