More people, everyday, need treatment as the opioid epidemic rips apart our country. Those struggling with addiction are vulnerable and the advocacy of these people becomes imperative. My brother was vulnerable when he passed away in a medical facility because he did not receive adequate care. Out of the trauma of loosing him came my passion. I made it my business to do everything I can in order to prevent this from happening to others. Northeastern Recovery Advocates becomes your voice when you are unsure of what you want to say. We travel your journey of treatment with you, encouraging you every step of the way and we make sure you are taken care of so you can thrive in your treatment. We have connections for treatment centers across the country and our only aim is for you to enter one that is beneficial for your recovery. There are so many corrupt facilities out there. We have taken the honor of weeding through them to allow clear options from ethical resources.
