ABQ Accent | EP 37 - Jeff Holland

Jeff Holland, Executive Director, Endorphin Power Company Jeff Holland, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, doesn’t need someone to give him a runway – he is always thinking ahead and working as a leader in the NM recovery community.Two weeks into the opening of the Bernalillo County Recovery Support Center (BCRSC) on the EPC campus, Jeff welcomed our team to come in for our first on-site podcast recording. Thank you, Jeff!  *This is why you might hear motorcycles or airplanes in the background.Jeff and his staff design programming around this driving force: EPC is the go-to for people to have a safe place to exhale and reshape their lives.Jeff has been a part of the growth of the organization for 16 years and working in recovery for over 20. Even so, he says the work is not about him but about staff and residents.In this convo, Jeff highlights that it’s more important to do [the work] right, than be in a rush. And through this perspective, EPC is still action-driven toward positive community impact and breaking down of walls and misunderstandings. EPC has a lot on the horizon – microenterprises, growth in programming and partnerships, residential space etc. It can be seen as an incubator, a microcosm of the real world where, as Jeff says about life, “you don’t ever arrive, you just evolve.”This episode reflects how generous Jeff is in sharing his personal story and takes every advantage to lift up others. Check it out to learn more about how he accidentally get into cycling, how your organization might partner with EPC, and why lime green is the new IT color. Check out the open house on Friday, September 26th [email protected]
