Meet Dom from the Welcome Village

Dom has been living at Welcome Village for about 7 months. Since moving in, Dom has taken the necessary steps to better their mental health, sustain sobriety, and maintain employment. Dom has become a staple in the community and an inspiration for other residents. A couple of months ago, Dom was unemployed and struggling to stay sober. Now they work fulltime at WellPower and go to therapy, intensive outpatient treatment, and recovery meetings every week. Recently, they've taken up equine therapy as well. Conversations about sobriety with the Welcome Village site manager motivated Dom to take the extra steps to achieve their recovery goals, helping them to reach 38 days of sobriety and counting. CVC case management helped Dom to perfect their resume and find a job that they're passionate about. Dom explains that their recovery feels more solid than ever before and they're working on getting their Peer Support Specialist certification so that they can help other people find recovery too. As much as we love having Dom light up our site with their positive and motivated attitude, I'm sure they'll achieve their housing goals soon. We're so proud of you, Dom!

We are fortunate to have Dom at our Welcome Village!
