Tad Stringam grew up in a devout Mormon family. That didn't stop him from engaging in crime and drug abuse at an early age. He was in and out of treatment facilities as youth and eventually did almost 12 years state and federal prison. Tad spent many years in maximum security and the gang. Today, Tad helps others get sober through interventions with his company Awaken Industries. He is also part of a new hot springs recovery center in Desert Hot Springs that will be opening this year. His stance and evidence to support CBD and medical marijuana in recovery as a vital resource is something we should all be exploring and learning more about.

Rich shares his passion for recovery, how he stays sober, and how he helped launch teletech.

What is teletech?

Every facility is different and will use teletech in different ways. teletech is designed to fill the void. If you do not currently have an IOP or OP program, teletech makes that possible, with ZERO upfront costs. If you do have an outpatient program, teletech allows you to offer a new service to your existing clients, making it easy for them to attend as many groups as possible, regardless of work, family, or travel schedules. With teletext every facility has the opportunity to provide care and support to each client for as long as possible.
