Amplifying Women’s Stories in Recovery Advocacy – Presented by SHE RECOVERS® Foundation
March 8 @ 2:00 pm - 4:30 pm EST
SHE RECOVERS® Foundation invites you to write a new story this March in honor of International Women’s Day.
As women, our stories of recovery are about self-compassion, growth and transformation. Our stories also provide a key to unlocking healing opportunities for everyone who listens.
Together we can redefine recovery, smash stigma, break barriers and rewrite the stories for recovering women everywhere to become stories of renewed possibilities, inspiration and hope.
