Our Mission
The mission of the Southeast Recovery Learning Community is to offer non-clinical, mutual peer-to-peer support in an inclusive and trauma-informed environment for people who have been impacted by trauma, oppression, discrimination, addiction, mental health struggles, extreme emotional states, psychiatric diagnoses, and other challenges.
In our commitment to diversity, inclusion, and racial equity, we strive to build a healing community that is free from discrimination, stigma, and oppression. We seek to support people in an inclusive, safe space that is trauma-sensitive, validating, accommodating, and accessible to all. We celebrate diversity in all its forms, and promote access and opportunity for all those we support through our centers.
Essential to our work at the SERLC is acknowledging that everyone’s path to emotional wellness and recovery looks different. Each person is the best expert on themselves, based on their own lived experience.​ We provide support that is person-driven, support self-determination, and focus on personal strengths and resilience.
At the core of everything we do is our desire to help people thrive. We are intentionally centered around relationships and acknowledge that every interaction is an opportunity for learning and increased connection among our community members and employees.
Land Acknowledgement
We acknowledge that our Recovery Connection Centers of the Southeast Recovery Learning Community are located on the traditional lands of the Nauset, Wampanoag, and Massachusett Tribal people.
We pay our respects to them and their elders and acknowledge the truth of the violence, displacement, and forced migration brought upon these people.
We celebrate these and all tribal nations for the wisdom, courage, strength, and resilience they demonstrate, despite what was horribly and wrongfully done to them.
