He has five years of experience providing case management services to individuals with physical disabilities and behavioral health issues and over six years of experience working as a Regional Sales Manager in the pharmaceutical industry. Stavropoulos will oversee New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut outreach activities for The Meadows.

“We are delighted to have Joan and Peter join The Meadows team,” said Patty Evans, Senior Vice President of Business Development for The Meadows. “Their passion for helping people in need of trauma and addiction treatment will be a great asset to our program. I am confident they will help behavioral health care professionals in their areas gain a better understanding of the important work The Meadows is dedicated to doing; helping patients deal with life’s most difficult challenges, including addiction, trauma, abuse, depression, divorce, grief, and loss, or psychiatric disorders.”
