Over the past few weeks, Evan and Rebecca have been actively presenting at schools across the Victoria area and along the peninsula.

The focus of these presentations has been on sharing the message that recovery is possible for everyone, while also educating students and faculty about the Umbrella Society and the services we offer.

Recently, they had the opportunity to visit Stelly’s, Maria Montessori, and Mount Doug. So far this year, they’ve presented to nearly 1,000 students at various schools, with another 800-1,000 students still to go!

During these sessions, Evan and Rebecca open up about their personal experiences with substance use, addiction, and their path to recovery. They also engage with students, answering a range of insightful and thought-provoking questions.

A big thank you to everyone who has hosted us, and we look forward to seeing you again soon!
