Inaugural United in Recovery Walk
Kicking off our Recovery Month efforts, this powerful event will bring together community members, leaders, and supporters to raise awareness and support for recovery. A family-friendly celebration of hope and healing, the day will feature inspiring speakers, a community walk, live entertainment, and opportunities to win exciting prizes.

With our local Coca-Cola UNITED donating all of our beverages, you’ll stay refreshed every step of the way. And don’t miss the post-walk meal — the Cortana Kiwanis Club will be cooking up their world-famous jambalaya, made with love and a whole lot of heart! 💜🍽️

As a peer-to-peer fundraising event, participants are encouraged to rally their friends and family to join the movement, support the cause, and help transform lives.

Together, we will walk to break the chains of addiction and restore hope across our community.
