Larry and Patti
Our co-founders bring a wide variety of experience to Rewind. Helping people get a new start has been their passion for many years. Patti is a licensed teacher. Larry has management, training and pastoral experience. Combined they provide the administrative support to the program and they act as liaisons to the business and faith communities.

Melvin
See Melvin's story at vtontv.com. Melvin's life took a dramatic turn from the life of gangs, drugs and alcohol in Chicago to becoming a staff member at Rewind. His life experiences and previous position as staff member with Minnesota Teen Challenge make him a perfect fit.

Randy
Coming from a family of 14 children, Randy learned early on how to fend for himself. He knows what living on the streets means and has a way of connecting with our residents on a personal level just by being himself. Previous to coming on staff at Rewind Randy worked for two years at Minnesota Teen Challenge.

Chuck
Having a Master's Degree in Guidance Counseling makes Chuck more than qualified to work as a staff member of Rewind. His decades of experience include working with inner city youth gangs in Detroit, Michigan. He offers life coaching to our residents on a voluntary basis.

Steve
Having almost 20 years of sobriety to which he credits his mother's prayers and persistence, makes Steve personally aware of the possibility of life after alcohol. Steve shares his love of music and God with inmates in the county jail and at Rewind.

Caleb and Jim
Our two Licensed Alcohol Dependency Counselors bring years of counseling experience to Rewind. Having worked both in the government sector and the private sector gives them the know-how on presenting the program to other professionals. Having personal experience with recovery gives them the know-how on helping the men in the program learn how to enjoy life without drugs or alcohol.
