Video Introduction - David

Meet David, Program Director at Into Action Recovery in Phoenix, Arizona. David is responsible for creating a safe, structured, and welcoming environment where men can begin to break down barriers and start real recovery.

Seeing somebody be able to turn their life around, come in, not have any idea what they want to do with it. That's the juice...

In long-term recovery himself, David understands what it means to come into treatment broken and guarded. His experience drives his commitment to helping men feel safe enough to open up, face what’s holding them back, and experience real transformation.
