Directions Website

Operating for over 30 years, we are the #1 nonprofit provider of holistic peer led recovery resources in CT. Let's treat everyone with respect.

Based in Rocky Hill and Hartford with statewide mobile services, phone based and virtual services for mental health, addiction, & trauma recovery. Advocacy Unlimited fights for social justice and collaborates with individuals by viewing the experience of distress through the lens of human and constitutional rights. We, as a community of people who have the shared lived experience of navigating systems oppression, are committed to re-framing the dialogue around experiences of poverty, violence, trauma, and altered states of consciousness. We hold the truth that a person who experiences hardships is not “broken,” and that everyone has the inner capacity to heal, grow, and change. Our team envisions a world in which everyone – regardless of socio-economic status or psychiatric/addiction histories – has space to be seen, heard, and valued. COMMUNITY STANDARDS

🎤 Real experiences. Different perspectives. Meaningful conversations.

Our next Peer Forum is bringing together a panel of speakers who will share their personal lived experiences and how practices like yoga, breathwork, and the Alexander Technique have influenced their lives.

Together, we'll explore the connection between our bodies, nervous systems, and personal agency, with opportunities to learn, ask questions, and experience some of these practices firsthand.

Peer Forums are about more than listening to a presentation. They're about learning from one another and creating space for conversations that matter.
