In this episode we are joined by guest Boro Goic, a founding member of the Recovered Users Network (RUN). We not only discuss Boro's personal journey to recovery and the important work RUN is doing, but we also touch on the importance of establishing recovery oriented systems of care in communities throughout the world. Further points of discussion include the still-persistent stigma around addiction and recovery and the importance of giving persons in long-term recovery a voice in shaping drug policies at the international level.
