🎉 Fun Friday Staff Spotlight 🎉

This week, we’re excited to shine the spotlight on one of our newest team members, Jenny Kuyten, MA – Medical Assistant!

Jenny joined Reach for Recovery just a few weeks ago and has already made an incredible impact. Her compassion, dedication, and genuine care for others truly shine in everything she does.

She shares:
“I am honored to serve as a Medical Assistant at Reach for Recovery, bringing both professional experience and a heart rooted in compassion. My work in the recovery community, alongside continued 1:1 and respite care in the I/DD community, allows me to support individuals with empathy, respect, and a commitment to meeting them where they are.

Through my own journey of growth and sobriety, I’ve come to understand the importance of feeling seen, heard, and supported. I strive to create a safe, welcoming space where individuals feel valued and encouraged as they move forward in their healing.

My approach is grounded in connection: listening without judgment, offering support, and walking alongside others as they rediscover their strength and purpose.”

We are so grateful to have Jenny on our team—welcome to Reach!

There’s something special about gathering around good food and even better company.

Our women’s residential house hosted a BBQ with residents, alumni, and staff—and it was more than just a meal. It was laughter, shared stories, reconnection, and support all in one space.

Moments like these are a powerful reminder that recovery doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens in community. Building connections, strengthening relationships, and creating a sense of belonging are all essential parts of the journey.

We’re so grateful for the women who continue to show up for themselves and each other. This is what recovery looks like—real, supportive, and full of hope.

We have an immediate clothing need for the women at our Residential House.

As some of our residents transition back into the community, many are starting over with very little. As they begin to regain their health, even basic essentials like properly fitting clothes become a challenge—and we’d love to come alongside them with support.

If you’re doing a closet clean-out or have gently used summer clothing, your donations can truly make a difference.

Current needs:
• Large & XL tank tops
• 2X & 3X shirts
• 3X summer dresses
• XL T-shirts & shirts
• Size 14–16 shorts & pants
• Size 12 shorts
• Size 28 pants
• Size 18 pants
• 4X dresses

Every item helps restore dignity, confidence, and hope. Thank you for supporting women as they rebuild their lives. 💛

We’re proud to be engaging with the campus community to help educate, raise awareness, and start meaningful conversations around alcohol use and substance use disorder.

Knowledge is power—the more you know, the more you can support yourself and others. 💙

Stop by, ask questions, and learn more. Together, we can break stigma and build stronger, healthier communities.

Say hello to Astra, the welcoming face guiding clients at our Grand Haven office!

She’s the first point of contact for our clients, guiding them through the intake process with compassion and care. Astra is dedicated to creating a supportive environment where everyone feels encouraged on their recovery journey.

When she’s not helping others take the first step toward healing, Astra spreads positivity and makes everyone feel at home.

Each step forward—no matter how small—is part of the journey toward a healthier, stronger you. Just like new buds emerge after a long winter, growth in wellness takes patience, care, and support.

Celebrate your progress today, and remember: every day is a chance to bloom.
