Mission: A community organization made up of people in recovery, family members, friends and allies, celebrating and advocating for recovery in our community. Each month FOR-Albany members will discuss barriers the local community is facing and what steps we can take to overcome them. Such as access to treatment, supports, aftercare, family supports and other topics that affect us. As always, if you have an additional topic or community issue you would like to discuss we would be glad to add it to the agenda. Please contact Second Chance Opportunities, Inc. if you would like additional details.
