An Evening of Gratitude at Caron New York Recovery Center

Join fellow NY Alumni for a special evening dedicated to fellowship, gratitude, and connection as we head into the holiday season.

This autumn, let's gather together to share good food and celebrate our journeys. In a warm and festive setting, we'll enjoy a light dinner and reflect on the importance of gratitude in recovery. The evening will feature brief, supportive comments on navigating the holidays, leaning into gratitude, and managing family dynamics.

This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with your community and find fellowship before the Thanksgiving holiday.
