Together, We Are Stronger Than Any Drug - Please Join With US.
Together, we are stronger than any drug AND . . .
Together, we are healthier as a community.
Together, our community can make huge strides in combatting so many of our problems, not just addiction.
In our community, there are amazing people of all ages and circumstances who’ve made some decisions they later regretted. Who amongst us can say that they never made a regrettable decision? I’ve made plenty of them but have, for the most part, been able to set most things right afterwards.
Unfortunately, some people who have made some unwise decisions experience what Jimmy Buffett refers to as “a permanent reminder of a temporary feeling” – meaning their decision to use a drug to deal with their life’s problems created a bigger problem than they ever had before.
The Mid-Coast Recovery Coalition (MCRC) exists to help people who’ve made regrettable decisions to use a drug to deal with life. MCRC exists to help people make their lives “right” again, for themselves, for their families and for their community.
The single most powerful thing that MCRC can do is to bring us all together because, without everyone being onboard, solutions to helping people with addiction set their lives right is very, very hard.
As much as some people with addiction need “treatment”, all need the love and support of everyone in their community. They need to feel accepted, welcomed and even loved. They need good places to live, good jobs to pay their bills, transportation to get to work, to the store and to get around town.
They need YOU!
What can you do?
It does not need to be anything big, expensive or difficult. You can just offer words of support and to lend a sympathetic ear. You can play a hand of cards or share a cup of coffee. MCRC needs your help in any way you can support people in recovery.
