Presenter: Erik Lamoreau, LADC
Hello, my name is Erik and I am a person in long term recovery. What that means to me is I haven’t found it necessary to use any mind or mood altering substance since February 20th, 2014. As a person in recovery, I have achieved many goals. I have found a passion for helping others and work in the field of behavioral health. I was able to return to school and was elected student of the year for 2019 for Northern Maine Community College, I am the SUD Peer Recovery Program Coordinator for the Mi’kmaq Family Health Services. I sponsor other men in 12-step programs. I am a trained recovery coach supervisor and community naloxone distributor. I am a responsible member of society, a strong advocate in my community for recovery, and a valued member of the workforce. Most importantly I am a girl dad, son, grandson and husband. I get to be the vision of hope for the next person trying to recover.
