About Rush Jolly
Rush was born in Birmingham, AL.and raised in Lawrenceville, GA, where he attended Central Gwinnett High School. High School was short-lived as he got involved with drugs and alcohol at a young age. As the years went by, the drugs got harder and so did the consequences, full of traumatic events and broken relationships that eventually would lead him to recovery.
Rush himself has been sober since 2008. His sobriety is a direct result of God’s grace and consistent participation with the 12 steps. He is passionate about all things recovery and mental health, continuing to grow spiritually and helping people break through their limiting beliefs to find freedom from addiction.
Rush Jolly's Role at Emerge
He is a co-founder at Emerge and currently works as an admissions coordinator as well. Rush Jolly began Emerge along with Joe on July 5th 2022. His main reasons for working in the recovery field today are gratitude for the life recovery gave him as well as a passion for sharing the beauty of recovery with others.
In Rush’s own words:
“Co-creating Emerge Healing Center has been one of the most exhilarating experiences I have ever been a part of. I was terrified of taking this risk, but I was even more afraid of staying comfortable. Much like recovery, we have to get uncomfortable if we are going to live.”-Rush Jolly
