Cherokee 5K Turkey Strut

The Cherokee 5K Turkey Strut 5K is a benefit for Sunrise Community for Recovery and Wellness

Sunrise Community for Recovery and Wellness believes everyone deserves the chance to see tomorrow. But anxiety, trauma and isolation are symptoms contributing to a massive rise in substance use, mental health challenges and unintended overdose deaths.

We are a non-profit Recovery Community Organization (RCO), led and governed by those in the recovery community and their allies, offering education, peer support and resource navigation at no cost. Our team utilizes their lived experience to provide authentic peer support, resource navigation, harm reduction, education, and a pathway to becoming a certified peer support specialist to individuals struggling with trauma that often leads to houselessness, substance use, mental health issues, and/or justice involvement.
 
Sunrise helps fill gaps in systems of care for some of our most vulnerable populations- the houseless, the recently incarcerated, and those experiencing mental wellness and substance use challenges. We offer opportunities for individuals to discover their own journey to recovery through peer support, free services, resource connection with community partners and a pathway to gainful employment as a Peer Support Specialist. Our staff are the hands and heart of our organization and are able to connect with participants in an authentic, evidence-based way that removes stigma, reduces isolation and lowers instances of incarceration, hospitalization and recidivism.
 

 

100% of the funds raised by the Cherokee 5K Turkey Strut Run/Walk supports their programs.
