Meet The Team At Riverside Recovery Resources
The People Accountable For Your Care
Every organization has someone whose name is on the outcome. At Riverside Recovery Resources, four people carry that weight, and they have built their careers on this work in this county.
Chris Geiger runs the organization as Executive Director, and the mission he answers to is the same one we opened with in 1985, building stronger families and communities. Carlos Moreno, our Clinical Director, sets the standard for the counseling itself, so what happens in a session is not left to chance. Sandy Benitez, our Program Director, makes sure that standard actually shows up on the ground, across both offices, every day. Desmond Young, our Director of Business Development, keeps the relationships with courts, agencies, and the community strong enough that our doors stay open to the people who need them.
You are not calling a call center. You are calling an organization where someone is responsible for whether this works for you.

You Get A Specialist, Not Whoever Is Free
Walk into most places and you get handed to whoever has an opening. That is not how this is built. Come in for a DUI class and you work with counselors whose entire job is DUI education, under a DUI supervisor at your office.

Experience With Your Requirement
Some Of Them Sat Where You Are Sitting
Our peer support specialists are not working from a textbook. They have lived some version of what you are carrying, came out the other side, and made the deliberate choice to come back and help other people do the same. When one of them tells you it can be different, that is not a line. It is a report from the other side of it.
That is the temperament of this whole staff. They are certified, they are well trained, and they chose this work when they could have done anything else. Many of them speak Spanish, because a lot of the families we serve do, and no one should have to fight through a language barrier to ask for help. They are here because they have watched what happens when a person finally gets the right help at the right moment, and they would rather spend their days making that happen than doing anything else.
