Championing Recovery: Nathan Mitchell & David Aldridge's Call to Action

I think that passion is what makes the world go around, and you've got to find time, find a way of prioritizing that for yourself, or else you'll go insane or you'll turn to other things.
What does it take to turn the tide in the fight for addiction recovery? In this episode of 'Get In The Herd', Nathan Mitchell and David Aldridge tackle this pressing question head-on. David, a former Virginia State Director for Amy for America and Campaign Manager for Schuyler VanValkenburg, joins Nathan to delve into the vital role of advocacy in the recovery community.
Their conversation is a deep dive into how voter registration, legislative efforts, and criminal justice reform can become powerful tools for change. They stress the importance of having legislative champions who prioritize recovery, especially when facing challenges like the fiscal cliff. The episode doesn’t just dwell on problems; it’s a rallying cry for passion and effective organization.
If you’re looking to understand how to make your voice heard and drive meaningful change in the recovery landscape, this episode is a must-listen. It’s packed with practical advice and inspiring messages about the power of community action and the importance of making recovery a societal priority.
