Community Overview

At Ryther, we believe in the importance of reducing barriers and meeting clients and families in their community. This opens access to care and allows clients/families to be in their natural and trusted environment while working toward recovery. Therefore, all our therapists see some or all their clients in the community. This includes meeting clients in public spaces, in their homes, and in partnership sites (such as schools or drop-in centers).

Ryther seeks to create a work environment that reflects the diverse community that it serves. People of color, LGBTQIA individuals, persons with disabilities, and multi-lingual individuals are encouraged to apply. Our diversity is our strength!
