Advocacy in Georgia

The Georgia Council for Recovery is an independent advocacy organization dedicated to reducing the impact of substance use disorders in our communities through education, advocacy and training.

 

We help facilitate conversations that support the growth of recovery-focused services and support by recognizing the contributions that people in long-term recovery have made and continue to make. We provide hope.

 
We also lead a collaboration of addiction prevention, treatment and recovery advocates and allies in an annual event called Addiction Recovery Awareness Day at the Georgia State Capitol where we provide a unifying voice for a recovery-positive legislative agenda.
 
As a private, nonprofit organization, we rely on the financial support of our donors to sustain our policy advocacy work. Your generous contributions help us lift up voices for recovery, so that others may hear stories of hope and happiness. Please consider joining our efforts by making a donation so that others may know that recovery is not only real, it is an expectation!
