Judy Ashburn, MEd, LPC, CAC, chairs the DC Addiction Treatment and Recovery Coalition's Board of Directors. The coalition lists her with Samaritan Inns, a Washington, DC provider of residential recovery programs and supportive services.
Her public professional profile identifies her as Senior Vice President, Behavioral Health Integration & Therapeutic Housing Development at Nuvaya. Her published background describes work developing a continuum of care for people experiencing drug and alcohol addiction — including clinical residential treatment and transitional housing: the linked support that continues after a course of treatment ends.
As chair she leads a board drawn from the coalition's community providers, holding one view of the system across treatment, housing and the services that follow. Her chapter is about the architecture of care — what has to be in place, in sequence, for recovery to hold.
“Recovery becomes stronger when treatment connects to the support people need to rebuild their lives.”
