The Recovery Project Launches Multiple Initiatives for Artists Struggling with Addiction

Arts & Culture

Florida Studio Theatre (FST) is proud to announce the launch of multiple initiatives this month through The Recovery Project aimed at utilizing the arts to combat addiction and promote recovery. Developed over the past year in collaboration with Live Tampa Bay, these initiatives represent an ongoing focus in addressing addiction within the performing arts community. One of the cornerstone efforts unveiled today is the release of a comprehensive HR video tailored to guide performing arts organizations in fostering recovery-friendly workplaces. This resource, featuring puppeteering by esteemed Henson Board Member Raymond Carr, and generously supported by technical assistance grants from the Opioid Response Network, provides practical insights and strategies for organizations seeking to create supportive environments. The video, available for free, serves as an accessible tool for organizations of all sizes, aiming to bridge the gap between intention, and action in promoting recovery advocacy within the workplace.
