Program:  Recovery Cafe-Longmont
 
What is Recovery Café Longmont?    According to Becky Milanski, a Peer Support Specialist at the cafe, "Our mission is to be a community of refuge and healing for people in recovery."
The process is more complicated than just making the decision to be recovered.  Being stable for a day or a week doesn’t necessarily mean it’ll stick for the long haul – and Recovery Café Longmont is about the long haul. That’s why they work hard to provide members a healthy, stable community – a place to belong. Because while they teach members the skills to stay recovered, it’s the relationships that support members through those dark times.
Stevan Kukic, a member of the Recovery Cafe Longmont Board of Directors, shared the story of Recovery Cafe founder, Killian Noe.  Key to this model is the firm belief that every person is in need of recovery from something and having chosen the recovery journey they have wisdom to share.  This belief is the grounding on which is built the recovery programming.  Research literature has identified four types of social support that Recovery Café provides.  

•       Emotional—demonstrating empathy, caring and concern to build a person’s self-esteem;

•       Informational—sharing knowledge and information to provide life and/or vocational training;

•       Instrumental— providing concrete assistance to help people accomplish tasks; and

•       Affiliational— facilitating contacts with other people to promote learning of social skills, create community and instill a sense of belonging.

President's Message

Hello All,

Thank you for granting me the opportunity to serve as the president of the Rotary club of Longmont for the 2021–2022 Rotary year.

The upcoming year will be one of continuing change as we start the process of returning to the “new normal“ of in-person meetings. The process is going to be a "crawl, walk, run" and I hope everyone will be patient. 
 
The theme of this rotary year is "Serve to change lives".  It will be wonderful to be able to come up with projects to follow this theme and continue to serve our community locally nationally and internationally.
 
While we will not be able to have in person RYLA again this year, there will be a one day virtual session. With school being in person, I am looking forward to the Young Rotarian‘s being able to start up again in the fall. Our youth are the future of rotary!
 
My goal this year is to grow our club by a few members and for everyone to think of younger people in the community who would make great Rotarians.
I look forward to a terrific year.
 
Yours in Rotary,
Debby Paris
President
Rotary Club of Longmont
2021–2022
