Meet Our Team

Executive Director
My name is Chet Hower. I was graced with the gift of desperation in 1996. Through my willingness to change and the principles within the 12 Step process, I have been continuously sober ever since. It has given me the gift of being a Father, Son, Brother, and Friend.
I started bringing the message of Recovery into prisons in 1997. I found great joy and purpose in watching the lights come on in the eyes of the inmates. It is truly a gift to turn my worst experiences into my greatest strengths and help another who is combatting a fatal affliction. Subsequently, I owned and operated a Treatment Facility in the mountains of Southern California for several years. I am very excited to bring my knowledge and energy to Providence House! I know many families will benefit from the love and understanding of our treatment team.
I enjoy snowboarding, horse-riding, motorcycle-riding, target shooting, Cowboy Mounted Shooting, and traveling.
