Amanda Kennedy

Director of Admissions

Amanda Kennedy is our Director of Admissions. She is a resident of Hammond, LA, home to her alumni, Southeastern Louisiana University. She graduated in 2008 with a Bachelor of General Studies. She is also currently working on her MBA. She brings a passion for treatment and recovery to the table as she started her own recovery in 2020. She wants others to know the freedom that comes with sobriety. She credits her success as an admissions director largely due to her honesty and transparency regarding her own personal journey. When Amanda isn't working, she enjoys spending time with her children and Fiancé. Adding: "They will always be my WHY."
