JOIN THE RECOVERY MOVEMENT
We are an organization that is fully engaged in The Recovery Movement, a time and place in our society that fully recognizes the challenges, myths, misinterpretations, and misrepresentations of people who are living with chemical addiction and dual disorders.
Help us change attitudes by lowering stigma and creating a positive image of people in Recovery. Be a face of Recovery today by purchasing a “Recovery Rocks” ribbon. Be fearless about your Recovery…..show people that your “Recovery Rocks”.
Today, more and more people are joining the Recovery Movement to bring about positive change in how communities treat people who struggle with chemical addiction and dual disorders. A new, heightened awareness in communities across our nation is driving the Recovery Movement; and it is helping to openly engage people at all levels to bring about a better understanding of Recovery. With people and communities joining daily, the Recovery Movement is transforming attitudes from the negative stereotypes of the “irresponsible, immoral drunk and worthless drug addict” to the positive attitudes of embracing the science of addiction and the disease concept.
Today, science continues to show us that chemical addiction is a brain disease, much like diabetes is a blood disease. Both types of disease can be managed throughout a person’s lifetime with a chronic care model of long-term support, wellness and, when necessary, prescription medicine. Communities for Recovery is an active part of The Recovery Movement, advocating for people living their lives in long-term recovery from chemical addiction and dual disorders. All the proceeds from the sale of the Recovery Rocks ribbons go directly to helping people find and stay in Recovery from chemical addiction and dual disorders.
