Recovery voices will count in Denver!

As a person in long term recovery, someone who has not used
alcohol or drugs since September 6th 2003, I am grateful for the
opportunity to be part of something that is truly a magnificent first
for Political Conventions. This year, the conventions are the most
recovery friendly conventions ever, as faces of recovery will be seen,
and voices of recovery will be heard.


As thousands of people travel to Denver for the Democratic
National Convention, the environment can be intimidating to someone in
recovery. This year, for the first time recovery resources will be
made available to anyone who needs them in a safe space (Room 405 in
the convention center). Just to name a few resources that will be made
available include recovery fellowship, refreshments, and daily mutual
support meetings that will be held Monday August 25th-Thursday August
28th.
