TAKE ACTION

TAKE ACTION: Sign the Petition to Ensure Coverage for Addiction Treatment
Bill WIlliams2
“What became William’s fatal overdose occurred four days after his being denied in-patient detox as ‘not medically necessary.’ Would obtaining Parity Act intervention immediately upon his denial have resulted in a lifesaving admission? We’ll never know.”
Margot Head and Bill Williams tragically lost their son, Will, to an overdose in 2012. They, like millions of families, struggled to get insurance coverage for treatment. And those same families, at a time of crisis, are uncertain of their rights and coverage available to them under the 2008 Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act.
Families are being denied coverage, including medication for treatment and individualized care, which they are entitled to under the law. Families face roadblocks at every turn in navigating the treatment process. Help us change this broken system and save lives.

Festival Sponsorship - Wilkes-Barre, PA.

Love of Recovery - Free Music Festival - September 9, 2017 (12PM - 5:00PM) - Venue LOCATION: Kirby Park @ 160 Market St, Wilkes-Barre, PA 18704. 

Hello I'm Lori Sullivan Co-Founder of Rockers In Recovery, a media and productions company that specialize in bringing addiction education together with music events. The events are to help those affected by addiction may it be the addict or their loved ones.

We make these events totally free to anyone who would like to attend. In order to do this we rely on sponsorship dollars. We work very hard to make this a win win for everyone.

How? By becoming a sponsor we promote your organization/company through our many media platforms based on the sponsorship level you decide on. The earlier a sponsor comes aboard the longer you are promoted. You are also part of a great community event that promotes and shows recovery is possible (hope) as well as educating and helping those in need (help).

Of course in turn your sponsorship dollars are a 100% advertising write off and mostly  help pay for the production costs of the event. A win win!!


Again, we can only do this event through the participation of organization/company like yours.

Let's "Unite to Fight" against the ignorance and stigma associated with addiction! I thank you for you time and consideration. Sponsorship Packages PDF

Love of Recovery Music Festival; The History 

It was 2004 and I was stuck in a room drinking and drugging like a pig. I was using 24 hours a day 7 days a week. My state of mental health was off the chain to say the least. Deep down inside I was on a road to death and knew it and was really ok with it. It's Always Darkest Before Dawn. Read More
