Mission Statement
To promote recovery from addiction, improving health and well-being and encouraging social inclusion, through education, training, and personal development. We achieve our purpose by providing a mix of workshop-based learning, sober social events, and peer mentoring; linking people to peer supporters to build a long-term connection to other people in the recovery community.
About This Cause
Kennedy Street provides support to people who need help to recover from drug and alcohol, and other addictions. Our focus is on recovery. We help people get into recovery, stay there, and lead productive lives at our Recovery Hub in Brighton. We want to raise awareness of the hope that recovery can bring and the part that Kennedy Street can play in helping people to recover from addiction. By putting the person and their assets at the center of their recovery, we aim to build a future of hope, not despair. We help anyone who wants to overcome an addiction. We believe that those lived experience of recovering from addiction are uniquely positioned to guide and support others on their journey to sobriety. The people we help may have complex needs including mental health, are victims of abuse, while others are living with addictions and holding down successful jobs. We are proud to have opened our Recovery Hub in the center of Brighton for people to find out about recovery, navigate local services, receive coaching and peer support, accessing workshops to help them build their mental well-being and employment chances, and volunteering to help others. On a weekly basis we are regularly hosting over 100 people at the hub, with many of these people returning each week to work on their recovery so that they can stay sober and clean.
