Testimonials

“Through our partnership with the Recovery Rises Foundation, we are better positioned to help individuals in recovery and their families. With over 90% of our participants affected by substance use disorders, we are better equipped to support their interactions with the criminal justice and welfare systems, remove barriers to education and employment, and help them achieve family stability and economic self-sufficiency. We look forward to further partnering with Recovery Rises in The House Next Door, where we’ll house and care for women in recovery beginning in 2023.”
Lori Chaffers Executive Director Outreach,
Center for Community Resources
“We are so grateful to the Recovery Rises Foundation. Because of your generosity, we are strengthening our services for children—a segment of the drug and alcohol recovery community who are often underserved.”
Marsha Pigga Executive Director Children’s Advocacy Center of NEPA
