POUGHKEEPSIE – In celebration of National Recovery Month, for the last four Thursdays groups of 20-25 people have been gathering at Poughkeepsie’s Walkway Over the Hudson for evening walk-runs.
In coordination with The Herren Project, a non-profit organization for addiction and recovery, the energetic, outdoor group get-togethers celebrate the Project’s mantra: “Reaching one person, one family at a time.”
Formed in 2011 by former professional basketball player, Chris Herren, The Herren Project has “assisted thousands of families with recovery navigation, support services and awareness education to increase awareness and treatment of substance abuse disorder.”
It also includes the facet, THP Runs, a group of people, focused on running, walking, sharing, healing and growing together in its quest to raise critical funds and awareness for the Project.
To learn more about how to get involved or to make a donation, contact: info@theherrenproject.org or for help or recovery navigation questions, call: (844) 543-8555.
