Freedom Through Recovery

Scott Burlingame
Independence, Inc. has spent a significant amount of time the past few years helping people living with behavioral health issues and addiction get out of and stay out of institutional living, specifically the jail and prison system. Come explore how we have used the independent living core services of IL Skills Training, Mentoring, Advocacy and Transitional services to assist people to find their own path to recovery and community living. We will also share how our Center for Independent Living as been a partner as the state of North Dakota has transitioned money away from the criminal justice system to provide community based care coordination, recovery, and peer support. We will share some of the outcomes and impacts of our work on the community and hoping that you go away considering how you and your community can be a part of this work.
