    Jackson, MS - Johnny Joorfetz is the CEO and a co-founder of the Magnolia Recovery Wellness Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit established on Valentine’s Day earlier this year. Alongside co-founders Jody Penton and Chris Grothe, Joorfetz is committed to providing continuity of care for individuals transitioning out of residential treatment. The foundation covers a gamut of needs including sober living arrangements, life coaching, case management, peer-support, and transportation for essential activities, regardless of the individual’s financial abilities.
    The Magnolia Recovery Wellness Foundation strives to prevent the bleak prospect of homelessness or returning to a toxic living environment that many individuals face upon leaving treatment. As Joorfetz succinctly puts it, “Addiction is one of the greatest wars of our time, and our role is to support those willing to fight.”
    Joorfetz’s own addiction battle began at the age of 15, prompted by personal trauma and a lack of coping mechanisms, despite his stable upbringing. His transformative journey from rock bottom to sobriety has been driven by a spiritual awakening and a newfound purpose in serving others. Active listening, he emphasizes, has been an invaluable skill in his roles, allowing him to connect deeply with those in need.
    Magnolia Recovery Wellness Foundation has already started changing lives. From individuals who were once on the brink of homelessness to veterans rebuilding their lives, the foundation ensures that each person’s recovery journey is met with personalized care and resources.
