Detroit Recovery Project Incorporated The work of the Detroit Recovery Project Incorporated continues to reflect the same principles we live every day at McShin — peer-led recovery, lived experience, and the belief that lasting recovery is built through strong, connected communities.
In his book, The Recovery Ecosystem, Dr. Johnson outlines a holistic framework for recovery that goes beyond treatment alone, emphasizing the importance of community connection, stability, accountability, and opportunity working together. It’s an approach we see in action through both of our organizations.
When recovery programs share ideas, models, and lessons learned, the entire recovery ecosystem grows stronger. This work is bigger than any one organization — and collaboration is how we move it forward.

9 Years!!!!!

9 YEARS IN RECOVERY—WAY TO GO, MELANIE! 🎊🎉

Today we’re celebrating 9 incredible years of recovery for our one-of-a-kind, quirky, chicken-raising, TikTok-loving CFO extraordinaire, Melanie! 🐔💃

If you tell her she has too many chickens, don’t worry… she’ll just get a goat. 🐐

Currently rocking a broken foot thanks to bravely breaking up a squabble between her new pup and her sweet kitty (true recovery-warrior energy right there). Through it all, she shows up every day with heart, humor, and unwavering dedication.

Melanie, you are not only an amazing coworker and peer, but a treasured friend to us all. Your recovery inspires us, your leadership grounds us, and your spirit lifts this entire community.

We are so proud of you and honored to walk this journey beside you. 💙🧡

Drop some love for Mel in the comments! 👇
