Voices for Recovery

For Display

Across the country, people in recovery are celebrating their successes and sharing them with others in an effort to educate the public about treatment, how it works, for whom, and why. Because these successes often go unnoticed by the broader population, Voices for Recovery provides a vehicle for people to share their recovery stories.

To date, 6 recovery stories have been submitted. View all of the stories below, or search by State. To join the Voices for Recovery, share your story with us.

The Power of Recovery




Faces & Voices of Recovery Releases New Training Video

The Power of Our Stories: Speaking Out for Addiction Recovery is a new training video from the Washington, D.C.-based advocacy organization Faces & Voices of Recovery. Through example, the video emphasizes the importance of standing up and speaking out. It demonstrates how people are using their stories to change attitudes and policies that stigmatize and discriminate against people seeking or in recovery from addiction to alcohol or drugs.

For more information or to order the video visit the Faces and Voices for Recovery Web site.

The Web version of the streaming video (windows media file) can be viewed online at http://rmmedia.relyonmedia.com/asf1/3Development/PowerofStory_V013.wmv
