Voices of Change: Insights from Recovery Advocates

We try and co-locate with other services. You're visiting a house- lovely, lovely, and I love that you brought up that, the stigma component, because, as we experience across the nation, we have issues with stigma here in Colorado as well.
What does it take to build a community that truly supports recovery? In this episode of 'Recovery Talk', you'll hear from some of the most dedicated organizational stakeholders who've been at the forefront of creating recovery-oriented systems of care. These passionate advocates share their experiences, triumphs, and the hurdles they've faced in their ongoing efforts to foster environments where recovery can thrive. One of the key themes discussed is the vital role of advocacy and political engagement.
The guests dive into how activities like grassroots lobbying and action alerts can drive significant change. They also touch on the importance of fighting stigma and reshaping the language around addiction and recovery. The episode introduces the Beyond the Numbers campaign, an initiative aimed at sharing personal stories to combat stigma.
Throughout the conversation, you'll find a wealth of resources offered by the Peer Recovery Center of Excellence, making this episode not just inspiring but also incredibly practical for anyone involved in the recovery community. Whether you're seeking to understand the bigger picture or looking for actionable steps, this episode has something for you.
