We are THRILLED to announce Reebok as our official partner for the 2024 New York City Marathon! So, what does this partnership between Reebok—the iconic and irreverent sports culture brand—and the Release Foundation mean? It signifies a significant step forward in addressing the behavioral healthcare crisis facing our nation. Reebok is committed to being part of the solution, and we are grateful for their alignment with our mission to foster connection and prioritize mental health support. Reebok will be outfitting and supporting our 105 NYC Marathon runners this November. They are also generously contributing to our community events leading up to the marathon, so stay tuned—you won't want to miss what's coming! We're excited for an incredible NYC Marathon Season and are proud to represent Reebok's logo. Thank you, Reebok!

Why we do what we do – Recovering from trauma or substance use can give someone a new lease on life. Breaking patterns that were once mentally, physically, and spiritually harmful creates a space for genuine healing. We’re honored to provide our scholarship recipients with the opportunity to get on the path to a full recovery.

To date we have granted 60 Scholarships in 2024. The breakdown: 48% women, 26% DEI ,18% LGBTQIA+, 10% Healthcare and 10% Behavioral Healthcare Workers. We are grateful for the change we have made this year but more importantly, we are inspired to do more.

Please help us congratulate Hilary Phelps on 17 years of continuous sobriety!! We are honored to have a leader like Hilary, in the sober space and an advocate for women everywhere, on our Board.

Who we are and why we do what we do. Your support allows us to make a difference and we are motivated to do more. KEEP GOING. We are halfway through 2024 and we have granted *50 scholarships to provide life saving treatment.

We had the privilege of honoring Carter Barnhart with a Lifetime Achievement Award at our 2nd Annual Gala. Carter is CEO and Co-Founder of Charlie Health , an organization that has provided essential mental health treatment to over 25,000 young people across the country. Her impact on one of today’s most urgent issues—the youth mental health crisis—is unparalleled. And her vision is both clear and compelling: a world without suicide.

We believe in the power of stories. Last week we honored Siara at our 2nd Annual Gala, but her journey with us began last June when she Dmed Zac Clark and got a message back that changed her life. Siara is a part of our family now and continues to be a beacon of hope for others who are still struggling. Siara is 10 months sober, and living a life beyond her wildest dreams. We are so proud of her bravery, honesty and passion. The transparency of her experience is going to help so many people suffering in silence. We share Siara’s story to let people know that there is help out there, and recovery is possible. You do not have to do this alone. We love you Siara, KEEP GOING! If you or someone you know needs help-please reach out. We are here for and we will respond, just ask Siara ❤️

Come party in the name of recovery at our annual Gala on May 7th @ 7PM!! We'll be dancing the night away at Tao Downtown in NYC! Buy your tickets NOW with the link below. We hope to see you there! https://lnkd.in/er2yed3Q
