Through education and improving awareness, we work to remove the stigma related to substance abuse and mental health disorders that can stand as a barrier at every stage of recovery. The Recovery Foundation supports peer mentorship, as it's been proven that peer mentorship keeps individuals involved in active recovery longer, thus improving the individual’s rate of success while simultaneously assisting and engaging other individuals in early recovery.
