It's so vitally important that, even if you don't think it's in your backyard, maybe just be educated enough in case it comes to the backyard or in case somebody else needs help, and you have knowledge of this because you came to an event.
What if the key to battling addiction lies right in our own backyards? In this thought-provoking episode of 'Rise and Recover', hosts Nancy and Kathy tackle the vital role of community involvement in addiction recovery. They passionately argue that even if addiction hasn't touched your life directly, understanding and engaging with this issue is crucial. The duo dives into how education and awareness can tear down the metaphorical fences that isolate those struggling with addiction.
They encourage listeners to attend local events, get informed about the disease, and treat addiction like the national emergency it is. Nancy and Kathy also discuss the importance of surrendering to the process and taking decisive action. They believe that by acting collectively, like waves on the same ocean, communities can create powerful change. This episode is a compelling call to action, urging everyone to get involved and make a difference in the fight against addiction.
