Shawn Pasch with “Thrive” explains, “It’s hard to put words to it o how important it is. Because I know, for me I used almost 20 years. During active addiction, it was a struggle to be able to find a way out and to be able to find the resources needed to find that way out.”

“Thrive” can connect you to those resources. Learn more by logging on to their website https://thrivepeersupport.org/.
