What People Say:

“I just completed my certification for a drug and alcohol counselor using Intervention 911, and it was really helpful because it's a go-at-your-own-pace pace, and I could do it anywhere. I was already working full time in the recovery field, and it took me a month or two to get used to. Balancing work and education. But once I did, I was able to knock it out in four months and then begin my internship and take the exam to get certified. It was really informative. It really helped with adding to my professional career, and when I was interacting with clients at work, I was able to use a lot of the material I was learning. In addition to my own personal experience. ”

Michael - Recovery Center Program Director

“I knew I wanted to do this line of work for a really long time...I took all 5 modules to become a CCMI. Those trainings not only was it informative and educational...The instructors had the real-world track record of success that I wanted myself. They showed me exactly how to navigate...They understood where I wanted to be and most importantly, they knew exactly how to get me there. Since I became a CCMI, the trajectory of my career seemed to change. I've done hundreds of successful [interventions]. I've impacted more people's lives than I can keep track of. It started with that CCMI training, Intervention911—that was home base. That was the foundation.”

Zach - Interventionist, CIP, CCMI

“I trained at Intervention 911 to become a certified interventionist. Getting my CCMI credentialing because of the six trainings I did with Intervention 911. I've done dozens and dozens of interventions and formed my own business. 51% of my business is pro bono. Working with families living in extreme poverty. You'll learn everything if you go to these trainings. All about the family system, cultural competency and codependency. You'll be prepared for any kind of intervention anywhere in the world. And I'm so grateful to them for these trainings. Utterly changed my life. I hope you think about doing something with Intervention 911. A wonderful organization.”
