2010 Recovery Delegate Program – North Carolina State Committee
May 10th, 2010 • Category: Events, Flash AlertThe A&E Recovery Project Delegate Program was developed in 2008 to bring national attention to recovery by honoring individuals in recovery from every state. Seeking individuals who had been in recovery for at least 10 years and who were active in their local recovery community, A&E and its partners collected hundreds of applications from across the country. To date, 102 individuals from each of the 50 States and District of Columbia have represented their state at the Recovery Rally in New York City where more than 15,000 people gathered to celebrate recovery.
The State Committee was developed to help expand The A&E Recovery Project Delegate Program and generate increased awareness for addiction and recovery across the country. We strongly encourage you to submit your application at www.therecoveryproject.com/delegates for the chance to represent STATE at this year’s Recovery Month event. All applicants must be in recovery for 10+ years and be active in their local recovery community. Selected delegates will:
- Receive complimentary airfare and hotel to a Recovery Month event in September
- Network with fellow delegates at a welcome reception the night before the event
- Have their stories of recovery highlighted/shared with local/national media
- Help promote recovery through video posts, blogs and other updates on The Recovery Project’s Facebook page year-round
