Bill White on Recovery Advocacy: Changing Lives and Communities

We need a world people can recover in, and they began to create that physical world by creating recovery homes that provided sober housing for people that needed an environment following treatment, conducive to recovery.
How can the power of recovery transform not just individuals but entire communities? In this episode of 'Spirit of Recovery', hosts Rev. Dan Beckett and Rev. Michelle Vargas dive into the New Recovery Advocacy Movement, which aims to erase the stigma around addiction and recovery. Guest Bill White, a seasoned expert with over five decades in the field, shares his rich experiences and insights into how this movement is reshaping societal views and addiction treatment.
With a focus on the history of spiritual approaches to recovery, Bill discusses the significant role grassroots movements play in advocating for long-term recovery support. He also highlights how the Washingtonians influenced today's recovery support structures. This episode isn't just about theories; it's packed with real-life applications and stories that show the transformative power of recovery advocacy. Bill's reflections offer hope and practical advice for anyone affected by addiction, whether directly or through a loved one.
If you're interested in how recovery can create positive change in both personal lives and broader communities, this episode is a must-listen.
