Monica Smith  |

Administrative Manager | 503.989.5706 me

 

Monica first entered drug treatment at the age of 15, entered treatment again at age 18 after which she became homeless. She moved up to Washington to pursue a ‘normal’ life. She graduated from a community college in Washington in 1998 and entered the workforce. She worked in the high tech industry during the silicon boom in Seattle and continued working her way up. After some lifestyle transitions, Monica moved back to Portland and worked in the environmental field while actively pursuing a renewed relationship with her addiction. Monica entered treatment again at the age of 28: coming out of chronic meth addiction, homelessness and severe hopelessness about the future.

 

Monica has been in long term recovery, free from all drugs and alcohol since 12/23/04. Since entering recovery Monica has dedicated herself to helping to restore families suffering in transition by becoming a board member of My Sisters House. She is also employed fulltime as the Administrative Manager with Recovery Association Project in Portland, Oregon. She has been with RAP for almost 3 years and has been involved with projects ranging from Hands Across the Bridge, visionPDX, Community Connect and HBO Addictions: Communities Take Action.
