About Us
Mobilize Recovery brings together recovery advocates, nonprofit organizations, allies, business leaders and brands, government partners, and like-minded community-based organizations with an interest in creating sustainable change and community solutions. Engaging year-round with our Mobilizers, we provide partnership support and education to uplift and sustain their work, developing action-oriented goals that can be measured and scaled. We believe in the power of a grassroots, local-first approach that supports advocates, creators, and communities on the front lines.
The Mobilize Recovery Day of Service launched in 2023, as an initiative of Mobilize Recovery. It coincides with National Recovery Month in September and in its inaugural year, over 500 Day of Service events took place! In its second year, our focus is on the power of community, collaboration, and connection.
For your Day of Service, we encourage you to work with other advocates, friends, or organizations to help identify important needs within your community.
- How can you assist with those needs?
- Are there leaders in the community that could help out as well?
- Is there an existing event during Recovery Month in your community that you can plug a Day of Service into?
There is no limit on the amount of positive change we can effect in our communities!
Together, we can celebrate recovery successes and uplift communities on this unified Day of Service
