What is Faces & Voices of Recovery’s history?
Faces & Voices of Recovery was founded in 2001 at a national summit of 200 recovery advocates. Most of these founders were already engaged in recovery advocacy in their own communities. The summit was the culmination of several years of work in other campaigns and public awareness efforts. It followed on the heels of increased public discourse about the need for improved addiction recovery policies. Faces & Voices of Recovery incorporated as a 501 (c)(3) corporation in 2004 and is governed by a 21-member Board of Directors.
