 Jimmy Kerr

Program Director

Jimmy was deep in addiction, hopeless, and near death before entering the 24/7 House program of recovery in March of 2016.After 14 months, he completed the program here at th 24/7 House. Jimmy had plans to return to Atlanta, where he was from and begin a different life. God had other plans for Jimmy. He remained here at the 24/7 House in order to give back to others what was freely given to him. He was working in the office here 2 days a week and also maintaining a part time job in Baxley. Jimmy was dedicated in helping others in addiction find recovery, and then the door opened for him to begin a full time staff position here at the 24/7 House. Today Jimmy strives to do God’s will and work. He is a blessing to the 24/7 House and its residents. Today, Jimmy has found his purpose

 

Mark Morrison 

Residential Manager

Mark, our residential manager, has always felt a calling to help others. However, due to his own struggles with addiction, he didn’t know how to in a healthy and constructive way. It wasn’t until he went through our program in July of 2024, that he found a new path which led to helping others. God, becoming willing, and taking suggestions, have played a key role in his journey, and with God’s guidance, Mark now helps others who are on the same road to recovery.
 

Heather Mann

CCIT

 
Heather first started her recovery journey in July of 2013 after losing her children and
husband to addiction. After entering treatment and being accountable with the Family
Court System, she knew she had a passion to help other mothers that were sick, lost,
and broken like she was even if it was just for one soul. Though it was a long process,
she was able to strengthen her relationship with God and be reunited with her children
in 2015 and her husband in 2018. In 2020, Heather and her family were blessed to start
volunteering with the men and women at the 24/7 House. In 2023, she had the blessing
of being asked by Mr. Pete and Mr. Mike to start working with the Women’s program and
start the process of becoming a Certified Addiction Counselor. Through God’s Glory, in
November 2024, she became a Certified Counselor in Training and plans to test for her
official certification at the end of 2025.
