👊 Help us celebrate LOGAN and his latest recovery milestone! 👊

Last night at our Taking Back Ohio meeting at the Erie County Health Department, we had the privilege of celebrating Logan and 60 days of continuous recovery!

That’s TWO MONTHS of showing up, doing the work, making positive choices, and continuing to move forward one day at a time. Recovery isn’t always easy, but milestones like this remind us that progress is possible and that every day matters.

Logan, we are incredibly proud of you and grateful to be part of your journey. Keep building on the foundation you’ve created and remember—you never have to do this alone. 💙

Help us congratulate Logan by dropping a 👊, 💙, or a few words of encouragement in the comments!

This is recovery.
This is Ohioans thriving in recovery.

👊 Help Us Celebrate Monte! 👊

At last Monday night’s Taking Back Ohio meeting at the Erie County Health Department, we had the honor of celebrating Monte and his latest recovery milestone — 30 days of continuous recovery!

That’s a whole month of showing up, making difficult choices, pushing through challenges, and choosing a new path one day at a time.

Recovery isn’t always easy, but milestones like this remind us that progress is possible when we stay connected, keep moving forward, and never give up.

Monte, we are incredibly proud of you and grateful to be part of your journey. Keep building on this momentum. One day at a time, one step at a time. 👊💙
