Michael King's Mission: Building an Army to Battle Addiction

We need to break the preset notions, the preconceived notions, of what someone who's suffering from active addiction looks like.
Imagine having a conversation with someone who has not only fought their own battles with addiction but is now leading a charge to help others do the same. That's exactly what you'll get in this episode of Recovery Radio. Michael King, the Director of Outreach for Facing Addiction, shares his compelling journey from a political career to becoming a key figure in the fight against substance abuse.
His story is not just about personal recovery; it's about mobilizing a community to tackle one of society's most pressing issues. Michael talks about the merger between Facing Addiction and The National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, emphasizing the power of unity in overcoming addiction. He also highlights the innovative Addiction Resource Hub, a tool designed to consolidate all available resources in one accessible place.
This episode isn't just informative; it's a beacon of hope for anyone touched by addiction, whether directly or through a loved one. If you're looking for practical advice, heartfelt stories, and a sense of community, this episode is a must-listen.
