🎉 Join us in celebrating one of our peers!

After completing 10 hours of Keep Your Power, Marcus had his charges dismissed, but that's only part of the story. Today, we're celebrating his commitment to growth, accountability, and creating a new path forward.

Keep Your Power helps participants explore emotions, strengthen communication skills, and learn how to use their voice, responses, and attitudes to hold onto their personal power. Marcus showed up, put in the work, and stayed committed to change. 💪✨

Safety. Dignity. Connection.

That's what PRN's Harm Reduction Program is all about. Through free Narcan, fentanyl test strips, safer use supplies, overdose prevention education, and peer support, we're helping people stay safe while honoring their choices and lived experiences.

Together, we can continue providing resources that save lives and strengthen our community.

Recovery isn't about having no obstacles. It's about learning how to move through them together. 💜

Last week in our Recovery 101 class at our Charlotte Hub, we focused on barriers in recovery and how those barriers can sometimes keep us from moving forward, seeing the bigger picture, or recognizing the support available to us.

Each peer wrote down barriers they have faced or are currently facing in their recovery journey. The first picture represents chaos. We placed all the barriers together to show how overwhelming life can become when challenges start piling up. Then, each peer selected a barrier written by someone else and offered advice, encouragement, or a possible solution to help overcome it. This allowed peers to learn from one another, share their experiences, and recognize the value of peer support.

The second picture represents our stairway to success! Together, we took those same barriers that once represented chaos and turned them into steps toward growth, healing, and recovery.

Our barriers do not have to become roadblocks. Sometimes, with a different perspective and support from others, those same barriers can become stepping stones.

Maybe there's a gap on your resume you don't know how to explain. Maybe you've got a record and don't know how to talk about it in an interview. Maybe you're just tired of applying into a void with no idea what's going wrong. 🤔

Our Workforce and Career Development and Peer Employment Support teams work with job seekers navigating real barriers. We'll sit with you, evaluate the strategy you've been using, and help you sharpen it, resume, interview prep, and how you present your story. We also maintain relationships with employer partners who are open to hiring people with the kind of life experience you bring. 💼🌟

Last Friday, we gathered for a retirement celebration for John King, our Facilities & Maintenance Specialist, who has been with Promise Resource Network for over a decade. The event was filled with music, cookout food, and heartfelt tributes from friends, team members, family, and peers. As we honored John, he was presented with a cap and gown, a plaque, and a photo book of memories.

Thank you to John King for your commitment, dedication, and service to Promise Resource Network. We wish you all the best in your next chapter in life! 💜🎉

One of the biggest challenges facing many of the people in Raleigh we serve is transportation.

Since the R-Line service ended, our Raleigh Recovery Hub has seen an increased need for transportation solutions that help individuals get access to peer support, recovery services, employment assistance, and community activities.

A dedication vehicle or transportation sponsorship could make a life-changing difference for our peers.

Want to help?
✅ Sponsor a vehicle ✅ Donate toward transportation ✅ Connect us with a local business partner
