Our Rehab Mission at the Canadian Centre for Addictions

Our Rehab Mission at the Canadian Centre for Addictions

Our Rehab Mission at the Canadian Centre for Addictions

We don't believe in keeping our doors locked when the workday ends. At the Canadian Centre for Addictions, we're woven into the fabric of Ontario communities, and that's exactly how we like it.

You'll find us rolling up our sleeves alongside local groups like Durham Outlook, meeting people wherever they are. Battling addiction? We get it. Wallet's empty, and the fridge is too? Been there. Sometimes you just need someone to sit with you over coffee and listen, we're those people.

Here's the thing about recovery: it's messy, it's real, and it happens in community. Sure, treatment matters, but so does knowing your neighbour has your back. We're here to help build the kind of place where people don't just survive, they actually belong.

Our Rehab Mission at the Canadian Centre for Addictions Roots of Recovery Community

Roots of Recovery Community Roots of Recovery Community

Connection is at the heart of any community, and it’s especially crucial in recovery. Research shows that staying engaged with a supportive group is one of the best ways to maintain long-term sobriety. The Roots of Recovery Community, run by our rehab, offers a space for alumni to connect, share their experiences, and celebrate the progress they’ve made.

Being a part of Roots of Recovery isn’t just about connecting with others — it’s also about the opportunity to give back. Helping someone else along their journey can be one of the most rewarding aspects of recovery.

Recovery Day Toronto 2017

Recovery Day Toronto 2017

For the third consecutive year, the Canadian Centre for Addictions participated in Recovery Day Toronto. Due to the event's resounding impact, organizers moved it to David Pecaut Square, right beside Roy Thompson Hall, to allow for easier walk-up access in the city’s downtown core.

It was incredible to cooperate with addiction professionals from all over the province who take action to raise awareness about the real possibilities of recovery and to share stories of success in the battle against bad habits. The walk-up crowd was phenomenal, ranging from those who just wanted to find out more about addiction and mental health to those who desired to join aid programs to find help for themselves or their loved ones.

Inspiring Success Stories

Inspiring Success Stories

As people shared their stories of recovery on the main stage, hearing the positive, inspiring testimonies led to the celebration as the Canadian rock band Econoline Crush entertained the crowd with their distinctive industrial rock sound.

For me personally, the highlight of the day was running into many former clients of the Canadian Centre for Addictions and hearing about their triumphs and continued sobriety. Witnessing a person’s transition from hopeless to hopeful and then hearing about how their lives and families had changed for the better was both heartwarming and rewarding.

Our luxury rehab will continue to participate in this important event and share the message that actual recovery is possible!

“Here's the thing about recovery: it's messy, it's real, and it happens in community.”

Recovery Day Toronto 2016

For the second consecutive year, the Canadian Centre for Addiction donned the Silver Ribbon and gathered at Mel Lastman Square in Toronto to celebrate National Recovery Month.

Darren, Seth, and Abraham attended the event representing the Canadian Centre for Addictions. With over 30 Canadian cities designating a day in September to celebrate Addiction Recovery, the event continues to grow and raise understanding of the real possibilities of successful addiction recovery.

Participation and Awareness

The participation was outstanding as large crowds and a great number of organizations gathered to share their experiences and promote an environment of acceptance and learning. The Canadian Centre for Addiction was privileged to meet many individuals and families looking to tell their recovery stories and gather information about accessing professional addiction help services.

The warm, sunny weather, coupled with the live music performed on the main stage, definitely contributed to the energetic vibe of celebration and acceptance for all those who participated. Handing out T-shirts and meeting new people was an amazing experience.

Reconnecting with Alumni

Our rehab team was particularly delighted to have a few old friends and their families surprise us at our information booth. Hearing luxury rehab Alumni Members share their recovery triumphs was the highlight of the afternoon for all Canadian Centre for Addictions staff at the event. It served as a very natural reminder that the program delivered at our Centre is making positive changes in people’s lives.

Seth spoke with one such former resident who wanted to stop by, touch base, and let us know that she is continuing to lead a life of successful recovery and has never been happier. “Your place saved my life,” the young woman said to Seth as her mother nodded behind her in agreement. Seth made sure the young woman knew that her success was the result of her own hard work and dedication to applying CCFA’s program in her life.

Seth, Darren, and Abraham came away from that conversation inspired, knowing that the rehab treatment program is working to help people put their lives back together from the chains of addiction. It was a great Recovery Day in Toronto, as rehab looks forward to continuing the fight to eliminate the stigma surrounding addiction and to provide families and their loved ones with the help and guidance needed toward genuine recovery.
