Erase the Stigma! The issue is real — so is the solution!

Millions of people struggle with mental illness and addiction everyday in this nation. The stigma surrounding these illnesses keeps many living in the dark, suffering alone. Solutions are available, however; first we need to give people the strength and encouragement to reach out for resources.

Steps to Recovery Homes witnesses the battle every single day and is hosting an Erase the Stigma event in collaboration with many other organizations who are committed to helping those who suffer with mental health problems and addiction.

The event is free to the public.  Food, drinks and lots of great energy are available at the Nature Inspired Connection Room. Join us at Erase the Stigma, Saturday, November 8, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. 637 N. Main St. Suite 2B, Cottonwood AZ.

Four featured speakers will cover topics such as grief support, medications and long term effects, family issues and navigation with a loved one struggling, building resilience and community awareness. We are inviting organizations in behavioral health and addiction recovery to set up an information booth. We want to talk openly about these issues and provide solutions. The more we understand the unique challenges of mental health and addiction the more we can help.  Contact Damien Browning at 928-649-0077 Option #2 or visit stepstorecoveryhomes.org to reserve your space.
