– Sandy J., Pavillon Finance & Admissions
As many of you know, I have been with Pavillon for almost 18 years, and I have had the privilege of witnessing real recovery firsthand. As I am not in recovery, I didn’t understand what that truly meant when I started here. Over the years, this amazing program, along with the counselors and patients, have taught me so much. I am eternally grateful for this opportunity because I was able to share this knowledge with my children.

I have watched so many people come through the admissions door, wanting to turn around and run right back out. Some came in kicking and screaming, while others were full of anger, shame, and hopelessness. I have cried with so many that felt defeated that first day here, and been a sounding board for their pain and anger. I’ve truly seen that Pavillon gives hope and a chance to start fresh! Throughout my time here, I have seen lives change, witnessed true miracles, and seen hope and joy brought back to people in need. Pavillon gives back so much that was lost.

Who could ask for more than that?
