Steps toward recovery: Fundraising walk fights substance abuse stat : keepmecurrent

PORTLAND — Almost two years ago, Laurie Bachelder and her children watched a man overdose in Deering Oaks Park. The fundraiser begins at Payson Park, where people will speak about recovery from substance use disorders, followed by a 3.5-mile walk along Back Cove Trail. My spot is people who have been through rehab and are in recovery, keeping them there," Bachelder said. After witnessing a drug overdose in Deering Oaks Park in 2015, Portland resident Laurie Bachelder founded Help ME Recover to assist people with substance use disorders. "How did that man end up on the pavement in a public place?"Bachelder's search for answers led to Crossroads, a city treatment center, and then to Portland Recovery Community Center, 468 Forest Ave.
