http://www.MKRecoveryCoaching.com | Preview for a new privately funded movie on addiction treatment and the lives of those in recovery. Addiction affects almost 100 million people in the US. There are millions of us who are in recovery that remain anonymous to most of their friends and co-workers. Maybe we should declare ourselves to bring hope to those who are still struggling. “Deeply entrenched social stigma and mass participation in widely successful anonymous 12-step groups have kept recovery voices silent and faces hidden for decades.” But now, many recovery advocates are beginning to “come out of the shadows to tell their true stories.” The powerful message of “The Anonymous People” is conveyed through the faces and voices of the leaders, volunteers, corporate executives and celebrities who are “coming out” in order to publicize the epidemic of addiction—and to help other addicts break their silence. This new public recovery movement aims to transform public opinion, change public dialogue around addiction and recovery, and unite the recovery community as a political force. The film’s executive producer is the Morgan le Fay Dreams Foundation and features actress and ‘Guts” author Kristen Johnston, Miss USA 2006 Tara Conner, former congressman Patrick Kennedy, news anchor Laurie Dhue, former NBA star Chris Herren and many other public figures who have chosen to “come out” about living in recovery.
