Advice I Would Give My 20-Something Self
A very wise friend once told me, “Now is not forever.” Your early 20s can feel and be tumultuous, but hope, resilience, and healing are things you can take hold of if you want them. I am humbled to be part of such a passionate group of professionals dedicated to the healing and recovery of young adults. We stand by our Newport value—we will do whatever it takes.
