As we approach our Mother’s Day Celebration on Thursday, May 9, we’re highlighting the pressing need for increased support for moms fighting Substance Use Disorders. Through our 2024 campaign, brave moms are sharing their stories alongside talented visual artists to shed light on the challenges of addiction and hope in recovery. Check out the campaign trailer below, and stay tuned for stories of hope and recovery!

💡 Is it ever appropriate to tell someone in recovery that they'll always be an addict? Let's rethink this! 🚫 Language matters. Saying 'once an addict, always an addict' can perpetuate stigma, undermine progress, and impact self-esteem. Recovery is a journey of growth, resilience, and transformation. 🌱✨ Let's focus on empowering those in recovery. Celebrate their achievements, support their continued journey, and use language that uplifts and encourages. Together, we can create a more compassionate and supportive environment for everyone. 🌟 Oh and never refer to someone as an "addict". The label never tells an accurate story. #RecoveryIsPossible #EndStigma #EmpathyInAction #SupportEachOther 💪❤️

What an incredibly powerful statement...love this! We have a responsibility to interrogate and challenge our assumptions and change our behaviour accordingly. After all the world is changed by our behaviour not our opinion *Assume that I can, so maybe I will!* https://lnkd.in/dmzvHaCq #inclusionmatters #diversityequityandinclusion #changeyourmindset #downsyndrome #downsyndromeawareness

We joined The Children's Society team to discuss our inquiry into what it takes to change a system. We learnt how they are approaching systems change, what they feel is contributing to the change, and what they thought of our model for systemic change. Read more here: https://ow.ly/Mk5U50PVxj1 Thanks to The Children's Society team, especially Helen Dudzinska for her reflections and Donya Lamrhari for the doodle. If you’d like to join an action enquiry or work with us to explore elements of changing the system you work in, please get in touch with Kezia Jackson-Harman. #LetsPushThingsForward #SystemsChange #SystemicChange

I am a sought out leader,author,speaker,Life & Couples Coach;I help Autistic/AudHD/ADHD adults grow in awareness&action to achieve their self determined goals. My approach uses 51 years of life & professional knowledge.
In Neurodiverse relationships this looks like stepping back and asking a few questions filtered through a neurological lens. 1) What is it that we both need, see and/or are trying to say? 2) What are our individual strengths and challenges? 3) How do we create a life together that is good and safe for each of us?

Being a parent to 2 Autistic/ADHD daughters I understand the challenges they face (not fully, still learning, we are always learning) but I’m also acutely aware as a HR Director the challenges companies face in providing the right environment for people to shine, with or without disabilities. We are all different and work/perform well in different ways, the best thing for any employer is to try and get to truly understand their employees in a non Judgemental way, work towards and hone their strengths and also help nurture and improve any areas of vulnerability (hate the word weakness). It’s not easy but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try.

What has helped me face and heal from the overwhelm of injustice? The answer is simple: the power of being listened to in community. There's something transformative about expressing our feelings with others who, like us, seek to be seen, listened to, and valued. As we join together, we have the opportunity to listen and be listened to, breaking the isolation and understanding that the effects of systemic oppression are not personal, but they do impact us personally. In the face of systemic hurt, the antidote is systemic healing - in a community. You deserve a safe space to share these impacts, which are shared just like the healing process itself. Through the practice of Constructivist Listening, everyone gets a confidential turn to be truly heard. It’s astonishing how rare it is to be listened to without interruption, judgment, analysis, or advice. When was the last time you were listened to like this? Remember, healing in community is the antidote to oppression. #HealingInCommunity #EndOppression

Haley (She/They) is a queer person with lots of lived experience navigating the health system! I run Weight Inclusive Alberta @weightinclusiveab, am an advocate for Fat Liberation and am passionate about climate justice! What is your idea of a perfect day? A day where I can be present with the Land, my friends, family and get kitty cat cuddles. What is your favourite part of being a mentor? Getting to connect deeply with people I might not normally otherwise. Sharing this experience has helped me grow as a mentor, friend and person! I have learned so much in this program that has fundamentally shifted the way that I view my experiences with eating disorders. I feel grateful to be part of a team who can share lived experience, which is valuable and overlooked in the recovery field. Describe recovery from an eating disorder in three words: Liberation, Vitality, Presence! :)
