Advocating for Recovery from Substance Use Disorders
At Recovery Community Network (RCN), advocacy is a cornerstone of our mission. We are committed to championing recovery-friendly policies and initiatives that support individuals and families affected by Substance Use Disorder (SUD) and co-occurring mental health disorders.
Through our advocacy efforts, we aim to improve access to resources, raise awareness, and promote a supportive environment for recovery in St. Cloud, MN, and beyond.
Recovery Day on the Hill (March)
Every March, we participate in Recovery Day on the Hill, where we join other advocates to speak with legislators about the importance of recovery services and policies that support individuals in their recovery journey.

We actively engage with our community on social media platforms, sharing valuable information, success stories, and advocacy opportunities. Follow us to stay updated on our latest efforts and how you can get involved.
