Here at Into Action Recovery Society, we take seriously the addiction education aspect of the addiction recovery rehab experience. Much of the time, those that end up addicted to alcohol or drugs have fallen into some negative attitudes and behaviours. They may not understand addiction or recovery well. They may be lacking important skills, such as conflict management, communication, boundary setting, and other life skills helpful to manage everyday life.
We provide every client with the kind of education, resources, and support that will help them go on to live a life free from addiction.
We provide evidence-based education, which means that the information has been tested over time and has been found to have positive results. In other words, we make sure that the education and/or workshops offered here actually help those who apply it to their lives. Statistics are very important here, and we only offer educational programs that have a well-known, positive outcome.
Addiction Recovery Myths
There are various myths and stigmas about addiction. We spend time debunking those myths, as well as advocating for positive views on mental health. We engage in healthy, stigma-free conversations surrounding addiction, stigma, and various mental health issues. It’s not always easy to engage in conversations about oneself, addiction, and recovery. We teach right upfront about things like vulnerability, shame, stigmas, and courage. We give everyone permission to be honest with themselves and others, without having to worry about what others will think or way. No doubt you’ll enjoy a safe space that’s non-judgmental.
We value each individual. We understand that addiction can cause emotional, mental, and physical issues. We weave into our addiction education tools, techniques, and support that address each area of your life. We work at recovery from a holistic perspective.
Addiction Awareness
To help combat addiction in our community, we use various resources to help raise addiction awareness and recovery. Online, we utilize platforms like social media and educational articles. We also post regular blog articles that cover a wide range of addiction recovery topics.
Raising awareness by engaging the community can help people learn about addiction and the possibility that those that are addicted can recover. Providing information at the micro and macro level in the community helps us reach potential clients and their families.
