OUR MISSION
The vision of Above and Beyond is to build an individualized treatment experience that is available to anyone in need regardless of their economic status. Our clients and clinicians create therapeutic alliances that design and execute personalized programs of recovery that co-exist side-by-side personal development and growth goals. We believe that recovery is a process that requires meeting individuals where they are at as well as addressing their environmental life circumstances such as: education employment readiness interpersonal relationships and social re-integrative abilities and activities.
Compassion. Competence. Communal Healing.

We believe that recovery is a process that requires meeting individuals where they are at as well as addressing their environmental life circumstances such as: education employment readiness interpersonal relationships and social redintegrative abilities and activities.
Our Philosophy - Compassion. Competence. Communal Healing. We believe you can be well. With these simple words the founders of Above and Beyond have brought together a seasoned team of staff members from the healthcare community with decades of personal and professional experience in the ever changing field of substance use. When we say we believe you can be well were stating our belief in everyones ability to experience healing hope and health when properly stimulated educated and supported. Its this expectation of communal success that drives us to provide our solid foundation of excellence in prevention/intervention to the most fragile and vulnerable people of Chicagoland.
Above and Beyond committed to the idea that everything begins in the relationship is intentional about creating a unique hybrid by incorporating what has worked in the past with what evidence-based modern recovery methodology tells us to do in the present. Were trying to graft a humanitarian touch into the highest standards of professionalism known in the substance abuse industry.
This is our quest with an intended outcome of returning our clients to their birthright status of being responsible agents of their own destinies.
The concept that we humans have free will and are capable of choosing more for our lives when were lovingly recognized engaged and motivated to a higher level of being is not new yet this simple truth is often lost in the language of professional intervention.

Embracing a People First interface with our many constituencies is reflected in our reference to clients with substance struggles rather than addicts or alcoholics. Our behaviors should not define us and through our relationship via our shared human experience we try to foster a responsibility for each other in which we find an amplified and expanded level of healing both ways.
Weve tried to weave this philosophy into the fabric of who we are across our small but growing organization and all its programs. Staff members embrace and support these cornerstone values which have been developed by the original group who designed Above and Beyond and have put it on its feet.
Come and be a part of us on either side. There are countless points of entry and if these words strike any kind of chord with you you must join us.
Employment
Can you really say that you are satisfied in your current position
Is your employer attentive to your individual needs
Are you changing lives the way that youd like to
Are you listened to
Will you be proud to spend your remaining working days where you are and retire with regret
If your answer is NO to any of the above questions then you should consider coming to work for one of the employee-friendliest organizations in the substance abuse industry.
Take a moment to read our mission statement and pay attention to the big role we give our employees. Our product is our people and the work that we do with our clients is our most valuable asset. This could be one of the biggest reasons we have virtually no turnover. How many ads of ours have your seen in the local or electronic media
Weve scrapped a lot of industry dysfunction like stoic programs that march ahead whether they work or not managerial lack of listening ability and demotivational interviewing. Different maybe but to us it seems so normal that we cant figure out why it hasnt always been this way.
If what we say interests you then fill out an application and either mail it in to us attach it to an email addressed to If we have no positions open in your area of expertise (as you might expect we have a plethora of applicants) we will keep your application and resume for future consideration.
One additional assurance we offer any applicant is that your resume and/or application and/or confidential contact information will not be seen by or communicated to ANYONE ELSE until there is mutual consent. We come from the trenches ourselves and understand the delicate nature of a career change. Therefore anyone who feels trapped in a position or obligated or indebted to their current patriarch or even scared to come out of the woods please give the idea another think-through. Were not hindered by of any of that business because we dont participate in it. We are problems solvers by profession and we wear the white hats. Please remember that.
However with all of that said we are only interested in the Best of the Best so please dont apply unless you can demonstrate a tangible unblemished employment history. We check all references (eventually) and educational claims and we expect nothing less than what was presented to us as fact. This characteristic of complete disclosure and total honesty is consistent with our modus operandi and youll be pleased with the fact that you get the same consideration of total transparency from the office as well. It works both ways. If we are able to schedule an interview or you are in the area and you just want to drop in you can have the opportunity to meet and judge us for what we are. Were upfront. We play no games. We do what we say. And were here for only one reason . . . our clients!
Now go take another look at our mission statement compare it to your current life activity and tell us if we should be looking forward to hearing from you!
