LEXINGTON, Ky. ( FOX 56 ) — With the ongoing drug addiction epidemic, Kentuckians are seeing the rise of new resources aimed at recovery and sobriety. Level Up Recovery is a new resource in Lexington powered by a team of people who overcame these obstacles in the past.
Community members and representatives from other related organizations came to celebrate the grand opening of Level Up Recovery, a resource aimed at helping people make new lives for themselves as they recover from addiction.
LATEST KENTUCKY LISTS AND RANKINGS:
- What’s the biggest pumpkin that’s ever been grown in Kentucky?
- How much candy corn is Kentucky buying? Instacart data may have the answer
- Kentucky among the most ‘Halloween-obsessed’ states, according to a new ranking
I don’t think there should be any type of competition when it comes to getting sober. I think that everybody should work hand in hand,” said Level Up Recovery outreach coordinator Chandler Maze.
Maze along with director of business development Asher Snedegar and client care supervisor Michael Crump have all overcome addiction, and they hope to use their stories to encourage others that help is always around the corner. With classes for trauma, pinpointing the causes of addiction, and community support groups, this team is glad to add to the resources in the city.
