About Us
Hi, my name is Jacquelyn Hunt
Hi, my name is Jacquelyn Hunt. I am the Founder and CEO of CROFF (Cultural Recovery Options For Families) as well as a certified substance abuse counselor, licensed professional counselor, and published author.
I am a caring, compassionate professional with over 18 years of experience in the Substance Abuse/Mental Health field and I provide culturally relevant, strength-based, and trauma-informed care to all my clients. I specialize in serving people from marginalized families and communities.
I know firsthand what it is like to be marginalized and in need of supportive services. I have led my own path of recovery, redemption, and restoration that now provides the foundation for my work. This foundation allows me to strike the right balance of supporting consumers and instilling the belief in them that they too can overcome to become all they want to be.
Today, I’m taking my services to the community and to the heart of where those who struggle the most with mental health and substance abuse dwell to inspire change and hope.
