Using Community to Empower Recovery
One-Hour Webinar
In this session, we’ll dive into how community and belonging can be powerful tools in helping people on their recovery journeys. You’ll hear about The Phoenix’s unique approach to creating safe, sober spaces where meaningful connections and fun activities help combat not just substance use but the deeper issue of social isolation.
