Director of Alumni

Recovery doesn't end ther should the relationship.

The day someone walks out of treatment is one of the most hopeful days of their life, and one of the most dangerous. Who's there on day 31? Day 90? The night it gets hard?

At Strive Recovery of Fort Wayne, the answer is going to be you. We're hiring our first Director of Alumni Experience, and you'll build the program from the ground up.

This is not an events job. It's a lifeline job.

• Build trust with clients before discharge, so the alumni community already feels like home when they leave
• Be the first call when an alumnus is struggling, and connect them to the right meetings, sober supports, and sponsors
• Check in consistently, because someone noticing is sometimes what keeps a person sober
• Create the moments that make recovery worth celebrating: coffee socials, alumni dinners, milestone celebrations, sober outings, fitness and wellness activities, volunteer days, speaker events
• Build community partnerships that widen the circle of support
• Own the calendar, the budget, and the records, because follow-through is how trust is kept
• Hold strong professional boundaries and know when to elevate to clinical support

• Have worked in a substance use disorder treatment or recovery setting (required)
• Bring 2-3+ years in recovery services, behavioral health, peer support, alumni programming, or community outreach
• Are warm, organized, assertive, and unafraid to pick up the phone first
