Congratulations Paul! 🎉

The USF CRSS Success Program could not be what it is without our community partners. We greatly value and appreciate their partnership and the learning opportunities they give to our students.

From day one, Paul Lauridsen, Executive Director at Stepping Stones Treatment Center has not only supported the CRSS Success Program at USF, but has been a champion of the recovery community in the Joliet, Will County, and state of Illinois. His service to Stepping Stones and beyond with such organizations as the Illinois Association for Behavioral Health and Southwest Coalition for Substance Abuse have been transformative to the field of substance use disorder and behavioral health.

In 2004, he became Executive Director of Stepping Stones Treatment Center and directed organizational growth and modernization. He has served and given himself to Will County’s behavioral health field.

Please congratulate, Paul Lauridsen on being awarded the CRSS SUCCESS PROGRAM OUTSTANDING COMMUNITY PARTNER AWARD! 🏆🎉
