A Foundation Built on Resilience

P.U.S.H. Up Recovery was founded on the belief that recovery is a shared experience where strength is found in vulnerability and connection. With 18 years of experience, our founder Kizzey Collins built this organization inspired by her own journey and the struggles of countless others within the recovery community.  The name "P.U.S.H." reflects the strength that comes from collective encouragement, symbolizing the ability to uplift each other during challenging times. Our work is grounded in lived experience, and this is what differentiates us.  We understand the complexities of recovery because we have been there. This authenticity drives every aspect of what we do, making us more than a resource—we are a community of people supporting each other. The powerful combination of personal resilience and peer-driven guidance defines our philosophy: recovery is real, and it’s a journey we take together.
