Caring Cards can serve as a way to offer personalized and on-going encouragement for the people who are in treatment or recovery from substances use, to stay on that path. These Caring Cards were created by people who live in our community, and are members of the substance use recovery community through THRIVE Long Island. These cards showcase their their artistic talent, and spread messages of positivity and support.
Caring Cards are a simple reminder to persevere through tough times, and can provide support when a person may need it the most, such as:
- when treatment just started
- when a major life-event has happened (positive or negative)
- when a treatment milestone has been reached
- when someone’s support system is limited
- when someone is showing signs and symptoms of being at risk for relapse or overdose
- when someone might be lost-to-care
Simply print and fold the cards. You can give them to someone as-is, or write an additional personalized message
