I think that we truly understand that diversity, equity and inclusion is critical to us, being a force of healing and hope for all individuals, families and our communities who are affected by substance use disorders.
Imagine growing up in Mexico City and finding your passion in helping underrepresented communities. That's the journey of Manuel Garcia, the Supervisor of Outpatient Programs at Hazelden Betty Ford's Maple Grove and Saint Paul campuses.
