Maxim mentions, "All of the work I do in my ministry is in recovery.

Joe Maxim, aka Big Joe, grew up near Pittsburgh. The youngest of eight children, he struggled with addiction in his early teen years and into early adulthood. When he finally beat his ten-year addiction around the age of 24, he chose to help others do the same - and began Young Overcomers United. It started with one young person in his home and has since become a source of hope for hundreds of young addicts and their families looking to make a change. Over the past 25 years, Joe and his wife Chris together have given young people the tools they need to succeed in recovery. In many cases, he encourages them to become leaders themselves, helping others to achieve freedom from addiction. Creating change in the lives of tomorrow's leaders is his ultimate goal.
