“Foundation for recovery promotes the positive impact of recovery from addiction, behavioral health and co-occurring disorders in our communities and enhances the lives of individuals and families affected by the disease of addiction. Our programs and partnerships open pathways to recovery by removing social barriers and creating opportunities for those seeking and maintaining long-term recovery.”

“Ffr offers evidenced-based peer recovery coaching to individuals living with addiction and mental illnesses. Peer recovery coaching is person- centered, non-clinical support provided by individuals with lived experience of recovery from substance use or mental health challenges. These services help others achieve and maintain recovery by offering mentorship, emotional support, and connection to community resources. Peer recovery specialists model hope and resilience, share practical tools for wellness, and assist individuals in navigating treatment, housing, employment, and social systems-all while fostering empowerment, self- determination, and long-term recovery. The foundation provides peer support to individuals in our access center; a drop-in style community space for people struggling with substance use to get connected to local health, housing, and community resources, enroll in medicaid, snap, and other public programs, and access overdose prevention tools and essential items like naloxone, drug testing kits, clean socks, and hygiene packs. In 2024, our peer recovery coaches assisted 1,135 unique individuals with accessing these services. The foundation also provides ongoing peer coaching and mentorship to members of our recovery clubhouse; a cafe-style space for people recovering from addiction and mental illness to congregate, access daily meals, and find a fellowship of other individuals living in long-term recovery. In 2024, the foundation welcomed 493 members to the recovery clubhouse for support groups, social activities and events, transportation assistance, and provided 3,830 meals to clubhouse members. 2024 was also the year the foundation purchased a 15-passenger van to begin a recovery shuttle service for members of the clubhouse to access employment, groceries, and recovery housing services in the community. Beyond the access center and recovery clubhouse, trained recovery coaches provide mentorship to individuals incarcerated at clark county detention center.”

“Our training department develops curriculum to educate the recovery community, family members, providers, law enforcement, and the general public about substance use recovery and public health. Our 46-hour peer recovery support specialist (prss) training is recognized by the nevada certification board and prepares nevadans to earn the credential of a certified prss. In the prss role, those with lived experience with behavioral health disorders mentor others that are seeking support with their substance use and/or mental health. Ffr also offers continuing education classes, prss supervision curriculum, overdose prevention, and community organizing trainings. Number of people who completed the prss certification training in 2024: 116”

“In 2024 the foundation for recovery launched the recovery works supported employment program for members of the recovery clubhouse with the goal of providing job-ready certification trainings and individual career counseling with continued behavioral health support. In 2024, 13 individuals were accepted into the inaugural program and 92% successfully gained employment. In addition to providing direct career support services to members, the program provides education and training to nevada employers. Upon successful completion of the training program, employers earn a designation as a recovery friendly workplace and are connected to qualified candidates graduating from the recovery works supported employment program. In 2024, over 25 new employers completed the training program and earned their designation from the governor's office as a recovery friendly workplace.”

“The rental income from the organization's building is excluded from unrelated business income tax (ubit) based on the provisions of irc section 512(b)(3). The building is primarily used for the organization's exempt purpose, and less than 15% of the total square footage of the building is leased to non-exempt tenants. As such, the rental income from the building qualifies for the exception for rental income under irs rules, and is not subject to ubit. Specifically, the building is used in furtherance of the organization's exempt mission, and the rental arrangement meets the criteria of being "de minimis" under the ubit regulations.”
