Intro & Mission

from Desparate for Change · host Desparate for Change

DFC is a podcast that gives people a chance to talk about recovery. If you are in recovery, it's a meeting that you can listen to. If you aren't in recovery, it's a glimpse into addiction and how people get to that point called a "moment of clarity", where they want help. All the revenues go to a charity that helps people get off the streets with treatment and jobs. Healthcare is expensive and the economic impact is ambiguous. The creators of the podcast, however, have a gut feeling that treating addiction has a positive impact on the economy. The narrative goes like this: if your addicted to drugs, you steal, lie, and commit crimes. When you are in recovery, you become honest and give back.  This podcast is exactly that: people in recovery giving back to the organization that saved their lives. We want to help people help themselves have profound personality changes that are positive for everyone and the economy. Feel free to donate to our Patreon, which is NOT necessarily a tax deduction yet, but will go to the charity.
