2010-2011 Spotlight Stories


Each year, 12 individuals are chosen to be spokespeople for recovery and for the Your Story Matters campaign. The 12 campaign "spotlights" as they are called, are an integral part of the Your Story Matters campaign, offering a face and a voice to a unified, consumer-driven Recovery Movement in New York. Addiction doesn't discriminate, but neither does recovery. And the faces of the 2010-11 Your Story Matters campaign spotlights are proof that recovery is real.
