Kelsea Blose is originally from the Tidewater area in Virginia and has lived in the NRV since 2012. After struggling with Substance Use Disorder for the better part of her life, she found a better way to live in 2016 when she was accepted into Drug Court in Pulaski County. The program taught her life skills as well as how to cope better with her Substance Use Disorder. Kelsea graduated the program in 2019. She has always wanted to help people regardless of their situation or how they present, so she took a Peer Support Specialist class, and is now working for InStill in downtown Pulaski, embedding in the community to help in whatever ways she can to try to make the community where she once caused havoc become a better place.
