RECOVERY GRANTS

To support members of the community who have taken the critical step of seeking or continuing treatment for substance use/addiction and mental health issues, we are pleased to announce our Recovery Grants program for 2023. Thanks to your amazing support up to this point, we are currently earmarking a minimum of $10,000 for the grants. Contingent upon assessment and approval, needs-based Recovery Grant funding will be disbursed directly to certified programs, service providers, or insurers on behalf of grant recipients. 

 For people who use drugs or have in the past, stigma is a barrier to a wide range of opportunities and rights. This is especially true for individuals from marginalized communities, as they have been historically the target of militant drug policies that focused on buttressing racial inequity and feeding carceral systems. The language that is used when discussing drug usage has the potential to further perpetuate the false notion that those that use drugs are inherently “bad people.”  NextDistro.org
