About Real Talk about Addiction and Recovery: Eliminating the Whisper

The mission of the American Addiction Recovery Association (AARA) is simple but powerful: To save lives, restore families, and strengthen communities.AARA is America’s exclusive organization which combines the voices of families and peers together to address the addiction epidemic. Working together, peers and family members will make a difference.AARA will do for addiction what the Susan G. Komen Foundation has done for breast cancer: shatter stigma and show America that recovery is real.The number one cause of death in the United States for Americans 18 - 45 is overdose. This is not acceptable. The numbers are at historic highs in terms of cases of active addiction and overdoses. On average, 200 Americans overdose each day which is equivalent to a 737-plane crashing every day.AARA will work with governments at the federal, state, and local level to advocate for funding and legislation to address the addiction epidemic. AARA will work with businesses, faith leaders, education leaders, law enforcement, and the medical community to change the culture and offer tools and resources so that those in need of support and help can receive it in a professional and effective manner.AARA is your trusted leader in improving the lives of individuals and their families impacted by addiction, overdose, and mental health. We support efforts to empower people to live their lives to the fullest in recovery and without the shame and fear associated with stigma.

Legislating Recovery: Rep. Sharon Cooper on Public Health, Treatment Access, and Accountability

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2502694/fan_mail/new] Georgia’s addiction crisis won’t change without policy that actually reaches people where they are. In this episode, State Representative Sharon Cooper breaks down what it means to legislate recovery from strengthening public health strategy to expanding treatment access and building real accountability across the systems that touch prevention, intervention, and long-term recovery. We talk candidly about where gaps exist, why access can be so difficult even when help is “available,” and what practical reforms can move Georgia from crisis response to sustainable solutions. #EndTheWhisper www.EliminateTheWhisper.org

Roadblocks to Recovery: Christina & Garrett Break the Silence in Georgia

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2502694/fan_mail/new] Christina and Garrett speak openly about addiction, the hard realities families face, and the roadblocks to recovery that too many people run into especially when support, treatment access, and real-world resources don’t line up. They unpack what helps (and what hurts), why isolation is so dangerous, and how community sometimes in unexpected places can become the turning point. You’ll also hear why this isn’t just a personal issue; it’s a public one, with consequences that ripple across families, workplaces, schools, and the wider community. If you’ve ever wondered how to support someone in recovery, why “just get help” isn’t that simple, or what needs to change so more people can make it, this episode is for you. #EndTheWhisper www.EliminatetheWhispper.org

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
