Matthew Newman

Hello, my name is Matthew Newman, and I am an Outreach and Referral Coordinator at Destination Hope and Recovery. My journey has been shaped by personal battles with mental health and substance use. I’ve been clean from illegal drugs since 2018 and sober from alcohol since 2021. Through my struggles, I’ve met incredible people who helped me keep going, and now, helping others do the same gives my life purpose and direction.

I believe everyone deserves a chance to find their way, and that real hope is often sparked by someone who understands the fight. I’m proud to be part of an organization that reaches people in their hardest moments and offers support when it’s needed most. As a father and community member, I’m passionate about creating a positive environment where people can grow, heal, and reclaim their worth, because I know what it’s like to forget you matter, and I know what it takes to come back from that.
