National and MN Recovery Month may be over, but the movement continues! đź’ś
We’re joining this year’s virtual Faces & Voices of Recovery Recovery Leadership Summit, with creative ways to connect, ask questions, and learn alongside recovery advocates from across the country.
One special highlight: a panel bringing together pioneers who helped shape the modern recovery advocacy movement 25 years ago - right here in St. Paul, Minnesota!
The 2001 St. Paul Summit helped launch a national movement that changed how communities see, support, and advocate for recovery. As Minnesota’s statewide recovery community organization, MARCO is proud to carry that legacy forward through our mission to educate, advocate, and mobilize the grassroots recovery movement.
How should we honor this Minnesota legacy beyond Recovery Month? A community celebration? Stories from the original advocates? Public art? Something else entirely?
