Art + Recovery = Freedom!

At R2ISE, we’ve embraced a new paradigm—one where creativity becomes our path to healing and empowerment. We sing through our struggles, dance in celebration of our recovery, and paint our stories in every color of the rainbow. We’ve come to understand that we are not on the fringes of the community—we are the community.

Art and Recovery

Through artistic expression, we reclaim our narratives, foster healing, and illuminate the power of recovery. Recovery is not just an individual journey—it thrives in community. It’s about connection, collaboration, and building new relationships. Together, we create, we heal, and we R2ISE.

Support Groups

Participate in our support groups that provide a safe space for sharing experiences and building connections.

Peer Support

Peer support plays a crucial role in the recovery journey for individuals facing Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and/or mental health challenges. Unlike traditional clinical interventions, peer support is rooted in shared experiences, mutual understanding, and the power of connection. This approach creates a foundation of trust, encouragement, and accountability, allowing individuals to navigate the complexities of recovery with guidance from those who have walked a similar path. By embracing peer support, we empower individuals to take ownership of their recovery, cultivate resilience, and contribute to a community that uplifts and supports one another on the path to healing.

Community Healing

Community healing fosters sustainability, accountability, and safety, creating an environment where individuals can thrive in their recovery journey. At the core of recovery is connection and belonging, which provide the foundation for long-term healing and personal growth.

R2ISE offers one-on-one peer coaching to support individuals in setting and achieving both short- and long-term goals. Through this personalized approach, peers receive guidance, encouragement, and access to essential resources that promote sustainable recovery and personal development.

Additionally, All-Recovery Meetings ensure that individuals have access to multiple pathways to healing. These meetings honor the diverse experiences of recovery and provide a supportive, judgment-free space where individuals can find the approach that works best for them.

By emphasizing community, connection, and resources, R2ISE empowers individuals to take charge of their wellness, build meaningful relationships, and sustain their recovery with confidence.

Creative Freedom

At R2ISE, we believe that collaboration is essential to building a safe and thriving recovery community. By fostering positive, lasting connections, peer support helps break down barriers of stigma, combats isolation, and provides a space where individuals feel seen, heard, and valued. Through shared storytelling, artistic expression, and recovery-focused engagement, peers gain confidence, hope, and the necessary tools to sustain long-term wellness, Community Healing and Sustainable Recovery.
