Hello, my name is Brittany Nesbitt and I serve as the Executive Director of Ruth House. My journey into this work is deeply personal. I struggled with substance use for 15 years and participated in several programs before truly beginning my recovery in 2020. That year, I entered two programs that changed my life, one of which was Ruth House.

During my addiction, my children were placed in the care of my parents due to the instability in my life. Through recovery, completing the requirements set by DCS, and the support of the Ruth House program, I was able to rebuild a stable life for myself and my children.

After completing the program, I later had the opportunity to serve on the Ruth House Board of Directors for a year and a half. In 2024, I was honored to step into the role of Executive Director.

Today, I am passionate about helping women find the same opportunity for change that was given to me. It is a privilege to walk alongside women in recovery and witness the transformation that happens when they begin to believe in a new way of life.
