Advocacy Unlimited

Advocacy Unlimited Operating for over 30 years, we are the #1 nonprofit provider of holistic peer led recovery resources in CT. Let's treat everyone with respect.

Based in Rocky Hill and Hartford with statewide mobile services, phone based and virtual services for mental health, addiction, & trauma recovery. Advocacy Unlimited fights for social justice and collaborates with individuals by viewing the experience of distress through the lens of human and constitutional rights. We, as a community of people who have the shared lived experience of navigating systems oppression, are committed to re-framing the dialogue around experiences of poverty, violence, trauma, and altered states of consciousness. We hold the truth that a person who experiences hardships is not “broken,” and that everyone has the inner capacity to heal, grow, and change. Our team envisions a world in which everyone – regardless of socio-economic status or psychiatric/addiction histories – has space to be seen, heard, and valued. COMMUNITY STANDARDS

A little look back at Friday’s Emotional Regulation: Moving from Survival Mode to Stability training!

Caleb Harris led participants through a conversation about what emotional regulation actually looks like in real life, from recognizing patterns to understanding the difference between regulating an emotion and suppressing or avoiding it.

There was a lot of great conversation around how this shows up in relationships, recovery, stress, and supporting others, along with practical tools people could take with them beyond the training room.

We’re grateful to have people on our team who bring their lived experience, knowledge, and passion into spaces like this!

💜 A meaningful day of connection, community, and lived experience.

AU team members, Kim and Em, represented Advocacy Unlimited today at Hartford HealthCare’s 14th Annual World Su***de Prevention Day Conference, connecting with community members and sharing information about the many ways AU supports people in their experiences.

They also had the opportunity to take in the panel discussion featuring Mackenzie Harris, an AU RSS graduate and Alternatives to Su***de facilitator, alongside our friend and community ally, Miss Connecticut Christa Steiner.

Grateful for spaces that bring people together, create conversation, and center lived experience. 💜

A huge thank you to Shanika Malcolm for a powerful webinar exploring our connection to nature and the impact that disconnection can have on our mental, physical, and emotional well-being. 🌿

From grounding and mindfulness to Indigenous wisdom, play, and simple ways to reconnect with the earth, Shanika reminded us that healing ourselves and healing our relationship with the earth are deeply connected. 💚
