Lauren DuPont serves as the nurse manager at Avenues Recovery Center at Baton Rouge, and is a dedicated nurse who brings compassion and purpose to her work in addiction treatment. She earned her RN, BSN, and CWS credentials from the University of Louisiana Lafayette, and previously specialized in wound care.
Lauren’s journey into addiction treatment was deeply personal. After losing both her mother, a successful attorney, and her significant other, a former marine and an oil rig worker, to addiction, she found a new calling. These profound losses inspired her to focus on helping others, giving purpose to her pain in the hopes of making a difference in at least one life.
In her personal life, Lauren cherishes time with her family and thrives in the great outdoors. Whether she's at the beach, kayaking, boating, or simply enjoying the water, being outside feeds her soul. She is also a proud pet parent to two birds, one of whom whistles the Adams Family theme song daily, adding a touch of joy and humor to her days.
