MOAR - Massachusetts Organization for Addiction Recovery

MOAR - Massachusetts Organization for Addiction Recovery Our DEI Statement: MOAR is a voice for all people seeking the benefits of recovery.
(1)

Our Mission: To organize recovering individuals, families and friends into a collective voice to educate the public about the value of recovery from alcohol and other addictions. Our Vision: MOAR envisions a society where addiction is treated as a significant public health issue and recovery is recognized as valuable to all our communities. We are committed to doing the work necessary to address the struggles and inequities diverse groups of people face while seeking recovery services. Systemic racism, prejudice, and bias have been deeply ingrained in the history of the American health care system. MOAR is committed to work to create a collective voice for those seeking recovery for all people who have been historically underserved, marginalized, and oppressed.

From Recovery City director Lisa Olivieri:

We are excited to share that Impact Norwood & the Town of Norwood are hosting a screening of Recovery City at the Morrill Memorial Library. For the past 21 months we have been doing an impact campaign with Twin Seas Media, screening the film across the country and having important and inspiring conversations about stigma and compassionate care. Please join us to screen this award-winning film and see what a film about RECOVERY looks like!

"An intimate, unflinching portrait of four bold women who refuse to let themselves or their community give in to the stigma and despair of addiction."

When: Thursday, February 26th
Where: Morrill Memorial Library 33 Walpole St., Norwood, MA/Simoni Room
Time: 6:30 - 8:30 (Film starts at 6:30 followed by a Q&A with the myself and the film's participants at 8:00)
Registration encouraged!

Free Tickets here: https://norwoodlibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/recovery-city/
