Road Recovery house band Type II performed a 'meeting & music' outreach event at Hazelden Foundation Tribeca Twelve residence, alcohol/drug-free housing that provides support services for young adults in recovery.
"I can't say enough good things about my experience with Road Recovery. I have seen the most difficult clients with pervasive mental health and substance use challenges transform before my eyes as a direct result of this organization! Road Recovery's program truly harnesses the healing power of music and provides a fun and exciting community helping to restore confidence, hope passion, and inspiration for the future!"
