💜 Breaking the Stigma: The Role of a Support System 💜

You are not weak for needing support. You are human.

Join us at The Gathering Pointe Recovery Community Center for an empowering evening focused on the importance of support systems and how they help us navigate life’s challenges.

🗓 March 6, 2026
⏰ 5:00–8:00 PM
📍 400 E. 4th St., Owensboro, KY 42301

We’ll be discussing what a support system truly means — a group of people who provide emotional, mental, and practical support — and how building one can strengthen recovery and overall well-being.

Whether you’re in recovery, supporting someone who is, or simply want to learn more, this event is for you. Let’s come together, share, learn, and continue breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and recovery.

🌤️ We’re OPEN Today — Friday, 1/30/26! 🌤️

Good morning Gathering Pointe family ❤️

We’re happy to share that The Gathering Pointe Recovery Community Center is OPEN today, Friday 1/30/26, during our regular hours!

Recovery doesn’t stop because of hard weather, hard days, or hard seasons — and neither does hope. Every day you choose connection, honesty, and growth, you’re doing something powerful.

✨ Recovery isn’t about perfection — it’s about showing up.
✨ Progress happens one step, one day, one choice at a time.

Whether you come in for connection, coffee, conversation, or quiet support, you are always welcome here.

We’re grateful to walk this journey with you — today and every day.

💜 You matter. Your recovery matters.
