The Jackson Area Recovery Committee will host a “Recovery Out Loud” Walk for Recovery at 10 a.m., Saturday, Aug. 29, starting and ending at the Home of New Vision/Jackson Recovery Resource Center, 407 W. Michigan Ave., Jackson MI 49201.
This is a sober event for families, friends and allies, and includes a speaker, music and refreshments. Participation in the walk is not mandatory, and everyone is welcome.
The first 200 people to register will get free T-shirts.
Guest speakers include Pastor Bass, and Doug Rickman, substance abuse therapist at the Allegiance Addiction Recovery Center and a member of the Jackson County Recovery Court Team.
