Apply for Assessment Coordinator

At first glance, the so-called “weeping” willow tree may seem sad or broken. But in reality, the willow tree is refined and graceful. A willow tree’s deep roots are as robust as its flexible branches. It is resilient and beautiful, just like each person who walks through the doors of The Willow Center. People who have experienced drug and alcohol addiction, mental health struggles, and other life challenges have the ability to grow and thrive where they are planted as they deepen their roots into their recovery and wellness. Like a willow tree, they can bend in the storms of life and ultimately overcome them with the right support. The same care and intention we show our clients extends to the people who work here. The Willow Center is committed to creating a workplace where team members feel valued, supported, and connected to the heart of the work – because when people are cared for, they are better able to care for others. At its core, The Willow Center believes in the power of change and in the resilience of the human spirit. Our work is about helping people gather the broken pieces of their lives and, over time, creating something meaningful and whole again. At The Willow Center, we believe in the power of change, and we believe in you!
