Americans need to step up and be more EMPOWERED!
Picture this: a quiet park in a small town near Daytona Beach, Florida, where for 17 years, NA and AA meetings have been a regular fixture. But recently, this peaceful setting has been marred by unsettling incidents. Local residents have reported feeling threatened by some members of these groups, sparking a wave of concern and action within the community. Police have been called, city council meetings have become heated, and petitions have circulated like wildfire.
Even the local newspapers have jumped on the story, highlighting the gravity of the situation. In this eye-opening episode of 'Safe Recovery', host Monica Richardson takes us through the unfolding drama in Holly Hill Park. With the help of Harriet, a determined local resident, Monica sheds light on the pressing issues at hand. Are these groups paying their fair share for the use of public spaces?
Where does the responsibility of NA and AA World Services lie in curbing such behavior? And perhaps most importantly, what happened to the spiritual principles these meetings are supposed to uphold? This episode doesn't just stop at pointing out problems. It dives into alternative solutions to traditional 12-step programs, emphasizing the need for empowerment over feeling powerless. Monica and Harriet discuss actionable steps to protect vulnerable community members, especially minors, from predatory behavior.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone concerned about the safety and integrity of recovery meetings and those looking for more accountable and empowering recovery options. If you've ever wondered about the darker side of 12-step meetings or are seeking new ways to approach addiction recovery, this episode offers both a sobering look and hopeful alternatives. Tune in to 'Safe Recovery' and get ready to rethink what you know about addiction support groups.
