Have you felt called to work in behavioral health, but aren’t sure how your background fits?

At NorthStar Regional, we know that meaningful careers in recovery often don’t follow a straight line.

Many of the people who thrive here didn’t set out to do this work. What makes our programs so special is the wide range of backgrounds and perspectives our team brings.

If you feel drawn to this field but aren’t sure which role makes sense for your experience, our HR team is happy to connect.
