The RECOVER Project

The RECOVER Project The RP is a safe, welcoming community that believes we can all Participate, Grow, and RECOVER! Participate, Grow, RECOVER. We are peer-to-peer and participatory!

We provide peer-to-peer support based on the guiding principles that people can and do recover from alcohol and drug addiction and that competence and wisdom reside in those with lived experience. We exist to foster recovery and support individuals on their recovery journeys. OUR MISSION: The RECOVER Project is a safe, welcoming community that supports recovery by sharing the wisdom of our lived experience and strengthens our community through full participation. We create resource connections, advocate to overcome barriers and promote the reality that recovery is possible for all. What is a “peer”? Peers define themselves in a broad sense as people with lived experience with addiction recovery, families, and concerned others. What is "participatory"? The participatory model is the inverse of traditional hierarchical organizational structures. It means having a process or system to ensure that the voices of peers are heard and respected and that people in recovery are involved at all levels of decision making about program, policy, and strategic planning. Peer facilitated Community Meetings are at the center of the participatory process, creating a forum for information and feedback, new program ideas, decision making, and policy development. Join us for a Community Meeting every 2nd and 4th Thursday of the Month! How Can I Get Involved? Call our main number or stop by and talk to one of our coordinators or volunteers. Our space is located conveniently on bus routes in downtown Greenfield.

Have you, someone you love or people in your life been impacted by opioid use? Your experience, your insights, and your voice are vital to shaping how our community uses opioid settlement funds. We’re inviting all community members—especially those with lived or living experience with opioid use—to join us for an important Listening Session. This is not just a meeting. It’s a chance for real input, real stories, and real change. Whether you’ve struggled yourself, supported someone in recovery, or work on the frontlines—you belong in this conversation.
