π What an incredible day at Saskatoon's Battle for Recovery #3! π
This past weekend, Susan Ulmer Addiction Services had the privilege of attending Saskatoon Battle for Recovery #3, hosted by the incredible team at Empower2Recover Foundation!
Events like this remind us just how powerful the recovery community truly is. Throughout the day, we heard inspiring stories of hope, resilience, and healing from individuals willing to share their recovery journeys. We connected with community organizations, met new friends, strengthened existing relationships, and were reminded that recovery is possible for anyone willing to take that first step.
A special thank you to Jay Barnard and the entire Empower2Recover Foundation team for creating such a meaningful event and providing a space where people can connect, learn, and be inspired.
We would also like to thank our long-time friends Dan and Donna at Hard Knox Talks and Parenting in the Storm for their hospitality and for all they do to support recovery, mental wellness, and community connection.
We were honoured to have our Executive Director, Shean Stewart share his recovery story with attendees. Every time someone shares their lived experience, barriers are broken down, stigma is challenged, and hope is given to someone who may need it most.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth, shared a conversation, and helped make the day so memorable! Some of the strongest recovery communities are built when people with lived experience come together, share their stories, and remind one another that hope is real.
Together, we continue to prove that:
π Recovery is possible.
π€ Healing is possible.
π€ No one has to do it alone.
