Additional Information

From 2015 I entered Light house on the Horizon. A rehab Facility in Wilro Park Johannesburg. The first year there I spent as a patient where I was part of the program. I excelled in the program and did extremely well. So much so I was asked to join the program as a staff member. I helped run the rehab for the next seven years as a volunteer. I took no salary. I stayed on the premises and took care of the facility and the patients. I ran various sessions and was one the the counselors st the facility. I have a full knowledge of the detox process and how a rehab operates. I truly have a heart for the addict and as such I'm helping out in my church program called We Care and with a teenage group called teens under the hood. I've been speaking at various schools and community centre's helping parents whose children have become addicts on how to deal with them and what to look for. I love what I do. I live in the Durban area now. I'm divorced and am looking for a position where I can put the knowledge that I gained to good use. I am passionate about what I do and I look forward to be of help to your center.
