RLP provides members of the recovery community statewide with the knowledge and tools to effectively advocate for themselves and for the addiction community. RLP fosters engaged and educated advocates by building an understanding of self-advocacy, legislative/government processes, social change models, and storytelling as a way of influencing others to take action. The ultimate goal is to have leaders become fully empowered advocates engaged in systems change efforts via core leadership teams established throughout Maryland. As recovery advocates, we know that recovering people and allies often serve as the key educators about recovery, which lessens stigma and discrimination toward recovering people and their families.
