Joanna Conti

As her daughter cycled in and out of multiple alcoholism treatment programs, Joanna Conti became very frustrated by the lack of success rate data available to help families identify the best treatment centers. A serial entrepreneur, researcher and chemical engineer who had previously started a software company as well as an international nonprofit, Joanna launched Vista Research Group in September 2015 to help treatment programs cost-effectively measure and improve their treatment success rates.

Having now monitored more than 70,000 patients during addiction treatment and followed up with 22,000+ patients afterwards, Joanna and her daughter share Vista’s findings on Conquer Addiction’s nonprofit website to help more people recover from addiction.
