Terminator Foundation’s Post

As we begin to wrap up Recovery Month 2024, we turn our focus to why building social support and a caring community is essential for recovery. Building strong relationships and social networks can offer support to those on their recovery journey. Connections with family, friends and other support networks can bring hope, love and a sense of belonging when they need it most. - We do not recover alone. Recovery can be easier with the support of others. - Community can include people who accept us and encourage us to grow. - Family, friends, peers, and others play an important role in someone’s recovery. - Recovery is supported through meaningful relationships. - Social inclusion, not isolation, is important for recovery. Recovery doesn’t have to be faced alone. By fostering meaningful connections, long-term recovery can be a possibility for everyone, regardless of where they’re at on their recovery journey. If you or someone in your life is ready to change their lives, we can help. Call us any time to learn how to get into addiction treatment and on the path to recovery. #EndTheStigma #RecoveryMonth #SavingLives

Today, we commemorate freedom and resilience. Juneteenth marks the end of slavery in the United States, a monumental step towards equality and justice. But our fight for freedom doesn't stop there.

We stand united in our mission to prevent substance abuse and support recovery. Let's celebrate the strength of our ancestors, the power of unity, and the promise of a better tomorrow. Together, we can create a world where every person has the opportunity to thrive, free from the grips of addiction.

💜 Today is International Overdose Awareness Day—a day to remember those we’ve lost and to raise awareness about the importance of prevention and support. As we honor the lives impacted by substance use and addiction, let’s also address a critical aspect of this conversation: accessibility to treatment and resources. Many individuals in need of support face barriers that hinder their access to vital services, such as: Affordable Treatment Programs: It’s essential that everyone has access to affordable and effective treatment options, regardless of their financial situation. Accessible Locations: Support services must be situated in easily accessible locations, ensuring that transportation challenges do not prevent individuals from seeking help. Inclusive Resources: Material and information about addiction prevention and recovery must be available in multiple formats and languages, catering to diverse communities. Breaking down these barriers is crucial in our fight against the overdose crisis. Let's work together to ensure that help is accessible for everyone, reinforcing the message that no one should struggle alone. 💜 Let’s honor those we’ve lost by committing to create inclusive and accessible support systems for all. #InternationalOverdoseAwarenessDay #Accessibility #AddictionSupport #Inclusion #EndTheStigma

The more I learn about Alberta Adolescent Recovery Centre (AARC), the more I am not only impressed, but think that it's a model that should be duplicated in part or in full in other jurisdictions.

Human Trafficking Awareness Day is a stark reminder: behind the statistics lie stories of unimaginable suffering. Sadly, addiction often becomes a weapon wielded by traffickers, exploiting vulnerabilities and ensnaring victims in a cycle of abuse. Let's shine a light on the correlation between trafficking and addiction, advocating for support systems that recognize and assist survivors on their path to recovery. Together, we can empower survivors, educate communities, and work towards a world where freedom prevails and human dignity is cherished. Empowerment starts with awareness, and today, we stand firm in our commitment to end both human trafficking and the chains of addiction. #sustainableRecovery #solaceAsia #addictionRehabilitation #RelapsePrevention #RecoveryJourney #SobrietyGoals #SoberLiving #SoberLife #HealthyChoices #mentalhealth #mentalwellness #MentalHealthMatters #YouAreNotAlone #StrengthInUnity #EndTheStigma #WellnessJourney
