Shout Out: Rush City Sex Offender Treatment Staff

By Michelle Saari

The OASIS sex offender treatment program has been severely short staffed recently resulting in one full time therapist and one therapist on loan from Lino Lakes to serve the entire program. While recruitment and hiring of new staff were a priority the past few months, Vicki Schroeder (the full time Rush City staff) and Maurita Christensen (on loan from LL) held the entire program together with the amazing support assistance of OAS Kathy Hanson.

These staff have been the glue holding the unit together running programming while helping to train-in new staff. Kristin Wittwer was also a huge help training-in staff prior to her transfer to case management.

THANK YOU for your incredible work the past few months to ensure incarcerated individuals continue to receive treatment. We could not do it without you and so appreciate your work and dedication to your clients and the facility.
