Mitch Gallignano: From Skeptic to Recovery Advocate

I learned to that effect that abstinence doesn't work with the opioid epidemic at this point in our lives, and so that was something I did not know going into this and I was against.
Imagine being skeptical about a recovery program, only to become one of its biggest advocates. That's the journey Mitch Gallignano shares in this episode of 'Open Access, Open Mic'. Mitch takes listeners through his personal recovery story, detailing his transformation from a doubter to a dedicated board member of The APT Foundation. His tale is not just about overcoming substance use but also about finding a new purpose in politics as a local councilman in West Haven, Connecticut.
Mitch dives into the life-changing work of The APT Foundation, an organization committed to health and recovery since 1970. He candidly discusses his initial doubts about the foundation's harm reduction approach and how he eventually came to see its value. Through Mitch's eyes, you'll get a firsthand look at the importance of flexibility in treating opioid addiction and the critical role of mental health support in recovery. His story underscores the power of community and the impact of compassionate care.
If you're interested in how local politics can intersect with addiction recovery or if you need a dose of inspiration from someone who has walked the tough path to sobriety, this episode is for you.
