Right Turn is a non-profit organization founded in March of 2003 by Addictions Specialist Woody Giessmann with a vision of providing innovative programming, individual support, rehabilitation services and ongoing encouragement to New England artists and entertainers (and their families) who've been affected by alcoholism, addiction, and psychiatric issues.

The largest obstacle is when a creative individual is overcome with the loss of hope and fear of not ever regaining the ability to return to a productive and creative lifestyle in sobriety. Right Turn overcomes this obstacle by offering a model of treatment which creates a unique out-reach team to meet the artist, explore their needs, and offer a continuum of services to support a person through the difficult period of early sobriety.

Because we understand that artists and entertainers are a population that is typically isolated and unlikely to enter into traditional treatment facilities, we have developed a unique approach to providing services -- having artists who are professionals in community treatment and relapse prevention work with our clients.
