From the most dangerous prison in Ohio
to Executive Director.

David Palumbo, LSW.

Recovery changes everything. Leadership built on lived experience changes even more. Happy early birthday to our fearless leader. We wanted to beat everyone to it tomorrow.

At Forward Health, we believe in humanizing the admissions process from the very first call.

Our Admissions team understands how hard it is to ask for help because we’ve been there. We know the fear, the shame, and the courage it takes to pick up the phone.

That’s why when you call us, you’re met with compassion, honesty, and real understanding.

We meet you where you are and walk beside you every step of the way.

You are not alone. 💜
And we are not hard to find. If you or someone you know is struggling reach out.

Today, Forward Health met with Aclochè, a staffing agency, to explore more employment opportunities for the clients we serve.

We talked about vocational programs, resume building, job readiness, and workforce placement, all while emphasizing what matters most: second chances.

Recovery is more than treatment, it’s rebuilding a life with stability, purpose, and opportunity. We’re excited about what this partnership could mean moving forward.

We aint hard to find

At Forward Health, we don’t do the minimum.

We hold ourselves to the highest standards in the country because the people we serve deserve nothing less.

That’s why we maintain dual accreditation through The Joint Commission and CARF. Two independent, nationally recognized organizations. Two separate sets of rigorous standards. One commitment: to deliver care that is accountable, evidence-based, and built to actually change lives.

Accreditation isn’t a badge on the wall. It’s ongoing evaluation. It’s clinical oversight. It’s systems, outcomes, and transparency. It’s making sure every program, every policy, and every person on our team is aligned around quality.

If you’re trusting us with your recovery, we take that seriously.

Nationally accredited. Clinically trusted.

Ready for a new life? We ain’t hard to find.

At Forward Health, some of our most critical roles across clinical care, housing, admissions, and alumni support are filled by people who once sat on the other side of the table. They were patients here. Now they are high-level performers with years of continuous sobriety, helping lead this organization forward.

We do not just track outcomes. We build systems that make them possible.

If you are ready for a new life, we ain’t hard to find.

We saw a gap, so we built something better.

At Forward Health, we believe health and wellness matter, especially early on when someone is rebuilding their life. Movement, connection, and having a place to unwind are not extras. They are part of recovery.

As we’ve grown, we kept running into the same problem. There simply weren’t enough local gyms or community spaces that could consistently offer a judgment free environment for our patients.

So we stopped trying to squeeze into spaces that weren’t built for this work and decided to build our own.

On March 1, 2026, we’re opening the Forward Health Peer Center.

The Peer Center includes a full gym, pool tables, table tennis, spaces to watch sporting events, offices, and most importantly, support. It will be staffed around the clock by Certified Peer Recovery Specialists who understand recovery because they have lived it.

This space is for current and past Forward Health patients. A place to move, decompress, connect, and just be human.

If you’re part of the Forward Health community, we’ll see you there on March 1st.

This building used to be a historic political headquarters in downtown Columbus. Decisions were debated here. Power was negotiated here. Big ideas came and went.

Today, it serves a different purpose.

We took a space built for politics and repurposed it for people. For second chances. For hard conversations. For rebuilding lives piece by piece.

Where strategy meetings once happened, people now sit down and talk honestly about what they need to heal. Where influence once mattered most, dignity does. Where the goal used to be winning, the goal now is recovery.

This is what it looks like when you invest in a community instead of just occupying it. When you preserve history but refuse to be stuck in it. When you take something old and give it new meaning.

This is Forward Health.
Humanize the process.

Forward Health has now treated over 5,000 people in our community.

That number isn’t a marketing stat to us. It’s 5,000 moments where someone picked up the phone instead of giving up. 5,000 families who trusted us with something fragile. 5,000 chances to prove that addiction treatment can be rooted in dignity, not judgment.

Every one of those people was met by real humans. Admissions staff who have made the same hard calls themselves. Clinicians who believe substance use disorder deserves the same respect as any other medical condition. Teams who show up every day to humanize a process that too often strips people of their humanity.

We’re proud of the number, but we’re more proud of how we got there. One conversation at a time. One person at a time. One life that mattered.

And we’re just getting started. We ain’t hard to find!

🎉 Today we’re celebrating Kyle Darby and all that he brings to Forward Health! 🎉
We may be celebrating a couple days late, but we didn’t miss it, and we wouldn’t. Our dedicated staff are simply worth celebrating every time.

As our Alumni Coordinator, and soon-to-be Community Outreach team member, Kyle embodies growth, service, and genuine care for others. His heart for our alumni, his consistency, and his ability to connect with people in meaningful ways make a real impact every single day.

And if you’re wondering who the guy is with the big bright smile holding the cake… yep, that’s Kyle! A perfect reflection of the positivity and joy he brings to our team.

Happy Birthday, Kyle! Here’s to another year of growth, leadership, and making a difference. We’re grateful for you and excited for what’s ahead! ✨💙

At Forward Health, our entire mission comes down to one simple idea: Humanize the Process.

That starts the very first moment someone reaches out. Our admissions team is made up of people who have had to make that same hard call themselves at some point in their lives. They know the fear, the hesitation, the vulnerability it takes to ask for help, and they treat every conversation with the respect and patience it deserves.

That same philosophy carries all the way through our medical care. Our doctors and nurse practitioners genuinely despise the stigma that still exists in healthcare around substance use disorder. They believe patients deserve dignity, not judgment, and they work every day to make medical care feel human again instead of cold or transactional.

Recovery is hard enough. The process of getting help should never make it harder.

If you or someone you love needs help, call us at 614-324-8669 or message this page anytime.
