Recovery high schools and adolescent recovery support services improve engagement and long-term outcomes, yet many families, schools, and communities don’t know if they exist or how to access them. This webinar supports the Association of Recovery Schools (ARS)’s broader effort to increase awareness through outreach, shared resources, and connection. 💚🎓

Bridge to Community (WEBC) is changing lives—one connection at a time.

In Q1 2026, Walton Empowers reached 79 individuals impacted by the justice system, delivering 1,401 peer-led services that support recovery, stability, and successful reentry.

From 337 in-jail recovery engagements to 447 jail-connected touchpoints and ongoing support after release, our team is walking alongside people every step of the way—because recovery doesn’t stop at the jail door.

💬 110 continued contacts through phone and secure messaging
🏠 Housing & basic needs support to stabilize lives
⚖️ Court support, treatment navigation, and advocacy to remove barriers

This work reduces recidivism, strengthens families, and eases the burden on our community systems.

👏 A HUGE shoutout to Tabbetha Daniels, our incredible Peer Outreach Coordinator, who has helped build this program from the ground up. Your dedication, heart, and leadership are at the core of this impact—and it shows in every life touched.

We believe in second chances. We believe in connection. We believe in people.

Together, we build bridges. Together, we change lives.
