“Life begins to end the moment we become silent about the things that matter!” ~ Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

ORIGIN: The Voices for Recovery - April Event is an event that allows Coulee Recovery Center to share who we are and what we do. If we don’t talk about addiction and educate about addiction how can we truly help our community understand the need for support for individuals seeking recovery. Each year Coulee Recovery Center provides a speaker who shares their perspective on substance use disorder and recovery and why having a community agency like Coulee Recovery Center is so important.
