The Heart and Mind Connection
We Are You...Commonality Is Our Core
An organization built for those struggling with addiction, trauma, mental wellness and recovery issues, run by those who have lived experiences in all these areas...now State Certified as Peer Support Specialists, ready to provide support, guidance and education. To you, your family, and our community, in safe and non-judgmental spaces throughout the Metro area and Greater Minnesota.
Self-Directed, Peer Supported, Strengths-Based
Mutual support—including the sharing of experiential knowledge and skills and social learning—plays an invaluable role in recovery.
Consumers encourage and engage other consumers in recovery and provide each other with a sense of belonging, supportive relationships, valued roles, and community. These we believe to be the building blocks of Recovery: Hope. Respect. Empowerment.
Why We Do It? Simply, Connection.
Recovery provides the essential motivating message of a better future—that people can and do overcome the barriers and obstacles that confront them. It not only benefits individuals by focusing on their abilities to live, work, learn, and fully participate in our society, but also enriches the texture of American community life. Hope is internalized; but can be fostered by peers, families, friends, providers, and others. And building the 'Heart and Mind Connection' is the catalyst of our process.
