Forging Connections in Recovery:
A New Dialogue An Evening with Dr. Kevin McCauley

Hosted by ASU’s Collegiate Recovery Program

Recovery Rising and The Meadows Behavioral Healthcare

Thursday, September 20 – 6-8:30pm
ASU’s Historic Old Main Auditorium

The Meadows and Recovery Rising bring Dr. Kevin McCauley to ASU for an evening filled with education and celebration. Dr. McCauley wrote and directed two films: “Memo to Self” about the concepts of recovery management, and “Pleasure Unwoven” about the neuroscience of addiction which won the 2010 Michael Q. Ford Award for Journalism from the National Association of Addiction Treatment Providers.  He will present on the ever changing dialogue surrounding recovery and substance use disorder.

Doors open at 6:00 PM, which will give attendees the opportunity to enjoy refreshments, learn about recovery resources at ASU and in the community. Dr. McCauley’s presentation will run from 7:00-8:30 PM, with questions and answers after.

Free and open to the public!  For more information and to RSVP:  recoveryrising@asu.edu

September is National Recovery Month, held annually to educate that substance use treatment and mental health services can enable those with a mental and/or substance use disorder to live a healthy and rewarding life. We know a strong community, sense of purpose, and leadership contributes to effective treatments that sustain recovery.
