About Us
HRC supports individuals and families impacted by substance use and co-occurring disorders, with a focus on those facing barriers due to stigma, prejudice, or discrimination. Through advocacy, education, and peer services, we work toward a future where recovery is accessible to all. Through community collaboration, we create a network of support that breaks down barriers to recovery.
