Letter from the Director - Pastor, Gary Kenney
|
|
This Past quarter Safe Harbor of Erin continued to stay focus on the service and care of all our clients. A very important part of that care was to ensure that all the clients and staff remain safe and able to continue our service to all our community employment partners.
Safe Harbor of Erin staff and all the clients has done a outstanding job this past quarter responding to this new COVID-19 environment we all have been enduring and adjusting to.
Staff Transitions at Erin
In recent weeks we have had some great staff transition at our facility. We would like to welcome two new additions to the Erin staff; Christopher Somerville, Program Coordinator, and Ms. Andriana Jones who is replacing Mrs. Margy Butts as our Admissions Coordinator. We also express our appreciation to Mrs. Margy Butts for her years of dedicated compassionate work she gave to Safe Harbor.
Christopher Somerville and Adriana Jones, both, bring the skills and abilities to our staff that will help improve the level of care we will bring to the clients we serve.
IOP at the Erin Facility
This quarter Safe Harbor Erin would like to recognize the hard work and effort the Director of our Intensive Outpatient Program Pastor Ron Smith and his wife, Donna Smith. Theirs efforts have been instrumental in this facility being able to providing another level of care to our clients. That service is carried out through his IOP coordinators, Mrs. Tatjiana Gaston and Mr. John Ludwing. We are able to witness the impact of this service in the clients, what a tremendous addition to the Erin Facility.
Independance Day!
Safely and as securely as possible, in this COVID-19 era, this weekend we look forward to celebrating with the clients and their visiting friends and families. On-site activities planned, Gaming, going to the creek, and relaxing on this beautiful campus site after a 4th of July meal.
I thank God for his safety and protection that he has provided over us all during these times, and he will continue as long as we believe that his is our Provider and Protector.

We love you, Pastor Scott Russell!! These shirts are for you, sir! So here’s a little backstory about these t-shirts: Pastor Scott is the Pastor of The Garden Church, who are huge supporters of Safe Harbor Erin and Safe Harbor Bucksnort. He currently has cancer and we got word that his family felt it would raise his spirits if we agreed with him in support by wearing these homemade t-shirts.
We all have one and although some of our guys were working tonight, these are worn with you in mind, Pastor Scott!!

Staff Spotlight - Janamon Lavail Corlew
|
|
Lavail came to Safe Harbor 6 Months ago and graduated our recovery program on June 19,2020. During his time with us as a client we quickly recognized his attentiveness to the classes and program activities. He participated, as well as volunteered his help with the activities. His ability to understand our program structure led to him becoming a client employee. During that time he chose to stay after he completing his program.
The Staff of Erin gave Mr. Corlew the opportunity to join the staff as a regular employee, and now he serves as assistant to our transportation coordinator here in Erin Tennessee.
