4th Annual Recovery Awareness Walk & 5K

🌟 Welcome to the 4th Annual Recovery Awareness Walk & 5K

Now in its 4th year, our annual Recovery Awareness Walk will be continuing our 5k Walk/Fun Run options! This event is spearheaded by the Shawano Menominee Resiliency Coalition to help bring awareness and support to those living in and working towards RECOVERY from addiction and mental health struggles in our local communities!

💪 Impact of Past Events

• New Resources: In the third year, funds were utilized to open a new recovery center, Rise Wellness, which is in the development phases of hiring an executive director and offering additional activities and programming to our local communities.
