Washtenaw Recovery Advocacy Project (WRAP)

Christine Brewer

Hello my name is Christie and I am super happy to be a new addition to the Home of New Vision team. I am a grateful woman in recovery, I have a little over 2 years sober and 4 years active in the recovery community.  I am also a single mother to a sometimes super sweet 16-year-old son named Maxwell whom I love dearly.  Recovery is my life and I’m incredibly passionate about helping others and have spent the last 4 years learning all I could about the disease of addiction and how to acquire and practice tools to have a better life. I love to laugh am great at organizing, so don’t be afraid to ever ask for help. As of this moment my end goal looks like a clinical therapist, along the way if I find another way to help I’m open to that as well.  Communication is one of my strengths and I’m always open to new perspectives and love learning new things.

Brianna Dobbs

My name is Brianna and I am the ROOT+ Coordinator for Home of New Vision, I am also involved with WRAP.  I am a person in long term recovery from substance use disorder. My  passion is to help others discover their own path to recovery and live a fulfilling life, whatever that may be.  For the last 7 years, I have worked in the field of substance use treatment, primarily in Macomb County.  I moved to Ypsilanti last month, to work with HNV and start my life with my boyfriend and our 2 dogs.  I am currently enrolled in graduate school to obtain an MSW through the University of North Dakota.  I am incredibly grateful and happy to be a part of a great organization and look forward to working with everyone!

Daniel Casey

I recently moved to Michigan from the Bay Area in California.  I have been working in residential treatment for the last 4 years and have been clean & sober the last 9 years.  The first 5 years of my recovery were spent working in restaurants, until members of my recovery community helped me find my true passion of working with alcoholics and addicts.  I feel fulfilled when I come home from work knowing I have helped somebody.  The professional relationships I have made and continue to make doing this type of work are of a quality I could never have imagined.  I love dogs, got a few, and live with my fiancée in a humble condo.  I look forward to experiencing a real Michigan winter.  I am excited to meet and work with you all.

Very excited for this new position here at home of new vision! I’ve been with Home of new vision for around a year and a half, I started this journey at Residential. Outside of home of new vision I manage Any Lengths Sober Living. My mission is to see people in recovery develop new life skills and to life a positive way of life. Helping some in need and watching someone grow in this process is one of the greatest rewards life has to offer. Every challenge in life starts somewhere but today we don’t face challenges alone. I am very excited to work with you all!
