ABOUT FOR-NY

We work to demonstrate the power and promise of Recovery from addiction to alcohol and other drugs, and the value Recovery provides to individuals, families, and entire communities throughout New York State.

We offer guidance and support to assist communities in building a solid foundation for Recovery at the local level. That guidance and support comes in many forms.

Sometimes it means we’re organizing a community listening forum on Long Island. Sometimes it means we’re engaging people to talk about their Recovery during a training in Rochester. It could mean we’re conducting statewide research or publishing our findings.

While it COULD mean any number of things, the one thing it ALWAYS means is that we’re mobilizing a powerful force from Bridgehampton to Buffalo and everywhere in between.

And, together, with the support of countless recovery advocates in towns large and small, we’re making a difference!

We’re continually inspired by the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers living meaningful lives in long-term Recovery. And, equally inspired by their dedicated friends and family members!

We’re also continually reminded that while anyone can recover from addiction, not everyone does. We honor those lost and their loved ones left behind by working to ensure that prevention, treatment and recovery are accessible to all!
