Kehn Charity of choice: Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation We are a force of healing and hope for individuals, families and communities affected by addiction to alcohol and other drugs. Our Vision - Together, we will overcome addiction. Committed to challenging the stigma, stereotypes and pessimism long associated with drug and alcohol addiction. Our fundamental addiction stigma-smashing strategy is to shine a light on people who are in recovery and, in doing so, expose the long-hidden reality that people actually do recover from drug and alcohol addiction; that it’s a chronic disease that can be successfully managed for life; and that it affects individuals who are every bit as moral, productive, intelligent, talented—and humanly flawed—as the next person. http://www.hazeldenbettyford.org
“As the General Manager of the Reitz Union Hotel, Chris was able to relate to all of his student employees very effectively. While serving as one of his student managers, I was able to significantly enhance my leadership and people skills as a result of Chris’ exceptional mentoring abilities. In addition to training his staff on how to succeed in the hospitality world, Chris also taught us many life lessons that simply couldn’t be learned in the classroom. I feel more well-rounded as both a student and a manager because of my experience in working with Chris.”
