Time to Rise

San Antonio's Recovery Resource

July 30, 2019

Just Horsin' Around

We wish you could see the smiles the horses brought to all of these children! Rise Recovery brought out an amazing group yesterday for the first time, and we hope to see them again! - Celeste Windham, Windham Quarter Horses

Our Younger Group had an awesome day last Tuesday at Windham Quarter Horses ! At Rise Recovery we know sharing special times like these are the backbone of recovery - building trust, being open to new adventures, learning and achieving new skills and surrounding yourself with positive influences you know will support you through the triumphs and the falls. Please also enjoy this video of their day at Windham.

Buyer Beware

As with most products on the US market it all comes down to economics. That includes drugs sold on the street. Some substances, even marijuana, are being laced with synthetic agents, which are cheaper to make but oftentimes more potent than the buyer is expecting, possibly deadly.
