or For today's , we wanted to share two amazing resources to assist low-income and elderly individuals with their taxes FREE OF CHARGE! We know tax season can be especially stressful for members of the community getting back on their feet, so we thought we'd share ways to make sure you can receive the best tax results possible without having to pay.

Only in Minnesota will you find a group of people having a burger cookout in full-blown winter weather...recovery can be hard work, so we always encourage and remind our groups recovery is supposed to be fun, and hey, it's good to fuel up for it too.🍔😋

Happy Friday, everyone!

As we enter the final week of SAMHSA Substance Use Disorder Treatment Month, we want to express our gratitude to our community. Recovery doesn't start or end with treatment, because at the end of the day recovery is all about connection. It's our privilege to be able to by connect people with themselves and each other, watching them thrive not just as individuals but as family members, friends, co-workers, and members of their communities. Remember, YOU have a pivotal role in promoting recovery for your loved ones and neighbors, YOU are a resource that makes recovery possible for someone else.

Recovery from substance use isn't easy, but it is brave and admirable. You never have to be alone on your journey, either. We're here to help...and, we're substance use/mental health professionals, so we like inspirational quotes while we do it! 😉

As we continue to grow into 2026, our service options are too! We're proud to currently offer two adult programs and one adolescent program at the listed hours, each tailored to unique treatment and life needs. All our programs also have co-occurring mental health support. In addition to our programs, we also offer comprehensive assessments, mental health evaluations, medication management through our partner provider, treatment coordination services, and more. We are actively planning even MORE new programs and services this year, so stay tuned!

When people need treatment, there can often be barriers. For pet owners, finding temporary care for beloved furry companions can be a major challenge and even discourage people from pursuing the help they need themselves. For today's , we at Lionheart would like to showcase the Animal Humane Society, an awesome resource in the Twin Cities metro area that partners with local counties and other organizations to provide up to 60 days of pet fostering for owners in crisis or need of treatment.

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day from Lionheart Wellness and Recovery. Today we remember the remarkable life, example, and lessons from someone who fought tirelessly to make our community better for all people. For all our neighbors directly and indirectly impacted by substance use and all the other injustices associated with it, our hope is simple: keep moving forward with courage, keep fighting to make our shared community better, and keep lovingly lifting up your neighbor to do the same. Recovery in every sense of the word is possible, and it's all around us. We're here to support you however we can. 💙💛

Happy Friday!!! The road to recovery is almost never easy or straightforward, but as one of our local community members demonstrates, no trial or setback can undo the rewards that the persistence and bravery of the journey bring not just to an individual, but to their entire community. You can read about Darnell Cox from Minnesota Recovery Connection and his inspiring story here. At Lionheart we are ALWAYS overjoyed to see recovery play out in the lives of our neighbors, and we cheer on the wonderful work people are doing all over our state. Go Darnell! 🙌

After spending his 20s in and out of prison while addicted to methamphetamines, Darnell Cox found a way to turn his life around – helping others in recovery along the way.

You may or may not have seen the news...but right now all licensed organizations in our state of Minnesota are experiencing a reimbursement freeze for recovery peer support services, as part of the federal crackdown on social service fraud in Minnesota. It is important to get rid of bad actors and ensure quality services are provided to those who are truly in need in our state, but this current blanket freeze is without a set end or a plan to support the many, many good people and organizations on the front lines of helping vulnerable Minnesota residents who are courageously pursuing recovery from substance use. These services save lives. Peer recovery specialists help connect people with the treatment and resources they need to find stability and lay a solid foundation for happy, healthy, and productive lives. Likewise, they serve as advocates to make sure people aren't shut out from the tools they need to prosper. You can defend and support our community partners in providing these vital resources by contacting your local, state, and federal elected officials and representatives about this issue.

For more information about what Peer Recovery Specialists do in our state, you can visit https://www.mcboard.org/peer-recovery/ . To express your support, you can also sign an online open letter calling on our Minnesota State leaders to find solutions and bridge the service gap for those who are doing good work with integrity at https://openletter.earth/an-open-letter-calling-for-leadership-clarity-and-immediate-action-on-the-federal-funding-freeze-impacting-peer-recovery-services-in-minnesota-042f93bb
