Dr. John Rook is a passionate servant leader who champions the belief that poverty can be solved.
With a doctorate from Oxford University, he has spent years both at the front lines and in academia to gain both a theoretical and practical understanding of the issues facing people in poverty.
It is this perspective that makes him a desired speaker at conferences – tackling topics related to poverty and prosperity and policy change.
As the President & CEO of Simon House Recovery Centre, John builds trust with his practical, hands-on approach thanks to several decades of work in the trenches.
Simon House in Calgary, Alberta, has been in their community for over 40 years, and has been founded on a culture of care.
The goal of the organization is to guide and empower men to achieve long-term recovery from addiction and all its effects.
Under John’s leadership, and his empowered staff, Simon House leads from the Core Values of compassion, acceptance, respect, integrity, accountability, and innovation, and are leading the way in addiction treatment and lifelong recovery.
In our conversation we discussed that many going through challenges use substances to help them disconnect from life’s pain.
John shares with us how by building a trust-filled community at Simon House, men in the program can start a new journey, and begin the work of reconnecting with life in healthy ways!
