2021 Rally for Recovery Was A Success!

Thank you to all who attended the 2021 Rally for Recovery. It was amazing meeting people from around Wisconsin and also those from other states!

During the Rally, we heard from amazing speakers including: Governor Evers, Paul Krupski, Dr. Jasmine Zapata, and Dr. Monty Burks. We also heard personal experiences from members of the recovery community on different perspectives of recovery (individual, family/friend, and community/ally).

For those that were not able to make the Rally, the segments will be uploaded to our YouTube page. Thank you again to our sponsors: Great Lakes Addiction Technology and Transfer Center (ATTC), 5Door Recovery, Wisconsin Recovery Community Organization (WIRCO) and Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS).

Dr. Jasmine Zapata named chief medical officer and state epidemiologist for  community health at Wisconsin DHS | Madison365    

Thank you again to our speakers, facilitators, and all who attended and made this event great!
