“Melinda constantly pours herself into working to support the recovery community.” – Jody White

Melinda White has devoted herself to helping people in need throughout Franklin and Grand Isle Counties. As someone who faced addiction herself, she recognized the need for supporting this vulnerable community and decided to take action. Through her work with Turning Point of Franklin County, and as Northwestern Medical Center’s full-time recovery coach supervisor, Melinda provides experienced support to her community on a daily basis. Outside of work, you can see her continuing her community action through her television program, Recovery Rockstar, and through playing piano at her local church.
