217 Recovery is a resource for those affected by addiction. A place for help and a place for inspiration. Without hope and inspiration, recovery can seem impossible. 217 Recovery is a group of recovering individuals with substance use disorder who promote fun in recovery.
After more than 15 years battling addiction—primarily to alcohol, but with other substances mixed in—Mitchell found himself at death’s door, both physically and emotionally. He had tried every way he knew to stop, but nothing lasted. Addiction cost him his health, his role as a father, and nearly his life. At his lowest point, he had gained over 200 pounds, flatlined in a hospital bed, and lost the will to live.
​
Everything changed when someone reached out. That act of kindness led Mitchell to a Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) program, and eventually, to long-term recovery.
Today, Mitchell is healthy, hopeful, and thriving—rebuilding his life alongside his son and helping others do the same. Recovery not only helped him heal old wounds and restore broken relationships, but also led him to a career in peer support, where he now walks with others through their early recovery journeys.
As his recovery deepened, so did his spiritual growth. Mitchell found strength and purpose through his connection with God, saying he “claimed victory over addiction in the name of Jesus.” That faith became the foundation he now stands on—through life’s blessings, challenges, and every opportunity that recovery continues to bring.
Mitchell now lives out loud, proud of his story and passionate about making recovery possible for others. He knows the pain of desperation and the isolation of addiction—but more importantly, he knows the power of hope, connection, and a second chance.
I'm always looking for new and exciting opportunities. Let's connect.
