This year’s Naperville 5K/Half Marathon Race will be held on October 16^th.  You can help support the Path to Recovery Foundation and our individual and family support services by participating in this year’s race.  PATH is a not-for profit foundation committed to supporting, educating and promoting recovery for individuals and families struggling with substance use disorders. We are now also providing recovery coaching services using a strength based, supportive approach designed to teach individuals and families how to sustain a healthy approach to their own recovery. All donations will be used to help us to continue to provide these to the communities we serve.

• Besides our family support services, a $20 donation enables us to provide one week of recovery coaching free to the individual or family in need of these services. Please note, our structured sessions run 16 weeks.
• We also provide certified recovery coaching classes to qualified candidates to help increase the number of coaches who are able to provide these services. These courses cost us $400 per participant.
