Because We Got Better
Husband and wife team share how they battled addiction and now help others to recover and connect.
The impact of addiction is devastating our families and our communities. Learn the story of Catherine Rosborough and Bill Whitney, both in long-term recovery and now a married couple, and how they eventually found hope, healing and meaning in their lives.
The two are both champions in the recovery movement where they live, in Forsyth County, Georgia (a suburb of Atlanta). Catherine is the founder of the Recovery Community Foundation of Forsyth (RCFF) and The Connection, a Recovery Community Organization. Learn more about Georgia’s network of RCOs, (there are 16 RCOs in Georgia supported through state funding) and how these grass roots organizations are helping fuel recovery in their respective communities.

P.S. A note from Rena...It has been a tough week for those of us who serve people in recovery in the north metro Atlanta area, as we lost yet another one of our young men to overdose. This one hurts deeply because he was an exceptional person from a beautiful and loving family. In recording the closing for this episode, I wept big tears for my young friend and his family. I almost re-recorded the message, but then again decided to keep it exactly as it is...Raw, emotional, difficult to hear. It's a time to weep and mourn and stand up and fight for those who struggle...and their families.
