✨This month's Staff Spotlight: Raven B. Recovery Technician @ the Walker location. Thank you for all your dedication, compassion and enthusiasm to Our Hope and to every client that walks through our doors. We are so blessed to have Raven on our team! ✨

Why do you enjoy working with women or in the recovery community?
I enjoy working with women in the recovery community because it gives me the opportunity to support, empower, and advocate for individuals as they reclaim their lives. It’s inspiring to witness their resilience and growth, and I’m grateful to be a small part of their journey.

What do you bring to Our Hope?
I bring compassion, consistency, and a calm presence. I strive to create a supportive environment where women feel heard, valued, and encouraged. I’m committed to showing up fully and contributing to the mission of Our Hope in any way I can.

What is one fun fact about you?
A fun fact about me is that I’ve created a scrapbook filled with every shout-out I’ve received from both clients and staff. Those affirming reminders mean a lot to me—they keep me grounded, inspired, and motivated to continue doing meaningful work here at Our Hope for the women we serve.

Anything else you’d like to add?
I’m grateful to be part of such a dedicated team. Thank you again for the recognition — it truly means a lot.
