Are you supporting someone who’s impacted by substance use?

We have just the group for you! Open Hearts is a peer-support group for loved ones of those struggling with a substance use disorder. People ij this group understand as they have been through it themselves.

Starting tomorrow, this group is moving to 6pm to hopefully accommodate more people’s work schedules.

You are not alone! We are here to support you 💜

The addition on our new building is all framed up! 🥳

Watching the progress is so exciting. It’s all coming together, one step at a time. It truly feels symbolic of recovery: taking a building that was falling apart and vacant. Renovating and restoring it so it can once again give back to the community. Sounds so similar to substance use recovery…

We can’t wait to offer an open-house and big celebration to welcome the community in to our new home. Stay tuned for details in the coming months 💜

Thank you to Robert Purvis for your vision. It is an honor to help guide it to the finish line.

Thank you to Chip Castle and Paul Dettman who work tirelessly to make sure this project is a success. We appreciate you both so much!

Today is the big day! Recovery Day💜 OPEN TO ALL!! I wish recovery was easy, but we all know it's not. Today, you have the opportunity to put more tools in your box, to hear stories just like yours, to feel loved and understood and to see and find hope in your future. There are so many fighting for you.
I, Raylene, as owner of 802 Scoop take great pride in being one of the sponsors of today's event. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend. You see I am like many, I am a mother to someone who struggles and suffers from this horrible disease. I am a mom who has spent these past few days and nights awake, scared and feeling helpless. My boy is missing, feeling trapped and like this demon is his only way out. If only recovery was easy. PLEASE enjoy your day, soak it all in. Fill your tool boxes, lean on each other and know with certainty that I support you, that everyone in that room supports you. You are not alone.
To my community, to my representative in Montpelier, I beg of you to listen! Listen to those that know a possible path forward because they have and are walking through the valley of the shadows of death. We NEED help!! Take a Covid like approach, you absolutely have the ability to shut it down! Fund long term recovery and sober living housing. Money spent to house the homeless is money you might as well set on fire. It's being spent to house and enable not spent to house and recover. Let's join together to help good people become even better people, who can live and contribute to their communities. 💜

Communities.

Recovery Day is a reminder that when we stop working in silos, people don’t fall through the cracks.

National Sober Day was established in 2019, during National Recovery Month, and it provides the perfect moment for raising awareness and increasing understanding. This day, September 14th, emphasizes the importance of compassionate conversation about addiction, mental health, and recovery. It serves as a reminder that by maintaining sobriety, you create hope for yourself and others, showing that change is possible.
