HOME

Alumni In Recovery is a 501c3 organization that gives local people a voice and platform to get into purposeful action so we can address Substance Use Disorder. We help change societal perceptions about the misunderstood brain disease process of addiction.

The innovative approach empowers people to have the means of which to connect through the subject matter of addiction by hearing people’s stories. Together and united, we can make a difference.

We present in school systems, host community-based events, and team up with local resources.

Our goal is to provide education for students and allies across the area to help promote positive choices and end the stigma by starting the conversation surrounding addiction with a peer-to-peer approach.

Together, we can recover our world!
