APG is the alternative peer group and it is an after-school program and weekends and holidays and anytime that the kids are not in school, they can come here and they can, uh, watch a movie or relax in a clean and substance-free environment.
What if there was a place where teens and young adults could find a supportive community free from the pressures of substance use? In this episode of 'Recover Everything', Rhonda Fairchild, Executive Director of APG Las Vegas, sits down with hosts Christopher West and Chelsea Mone to chat about the grand opening of their new office. APG, short for Alternative Peer Group, is more than just a recovery center—it's a haven for young people seeking a fresh start.
Rhonda explains how APG offers a safe and substance-free environment where teens can hang out, relax, and get the support they need. But APG doesn't stop at just providing a safe space. Rhonda dives into the various programs they offer, including family counseling and life skills training, which are crucial for long-term recovery. She emphasizes the importance of peer support and the role it plays in helping young people stay on track.
It's not just about sobriety; it's about building a life filled with purpose and joy. Rhonda also shares some exciting details about the grand opening event and how the community can get involved. From volunteering to attending events, there are plenty of ways to support APG and their mission. Plus, she touches on her work with TINHIH (There Is No Hero in Heroin), an organization that has been instrumental in supporting APG and the broader recovery community.
If you're curious about innovative approaches to youth recovery or looking for ways to get involved, this episode is a must-listen. Rhonda's passion and dedication shine through, making it clear that recovery is not just possible but achievable with the right support.
