This week, we are excited to shine a spotlight on Chelsea McNamara, our incredible Alumni Director!
Chelsea’s journey with NER is a testament to growth, dedication, and the power of recovery. She began her career with us as a BHT, where her passion for helping others and commitment to our mission quickly became evident. Through hard work and a genuine connection with our patients, she advanced into the role of Alumni Coordinator, helping build and strengthen our alumni program. Today, she serves as our Alumni Director, leading efforts to keep our alumni community engaged, supported, and connected long after treatment.
In addition to her professional accomplishments, Chelsea recently celebrated an incredible personal milestone - 7 years of sobriety. Her recovery journey inspires both our patients and staff alike, and she brings a unique perspective, authenticity, and compassion to her work every day. Chelsea demonstrates firsthand that recovery is possible, and that meaningful change can create opportunities to help others achieve the same success.
Throughout her time at NER, Chelsea has been a source of encouragement, hope, and unwavering support for countless individuals. Her dedication to our mission and the recovery community continues to make a lasting impact across the organization.
Please join us in congratulating Chelsea on her remarkable career growth, celebrating her 7 years of sobriety, and thanking her for all she does for NER and the individuals we serve!
