OVERVIEW

MUSIC HEALS 

Rock and Recovery™ is a community for people experiencing addiction, trauma and mental health issues. Built around the healing power of music, Rock and Recovery™ supports self-motivation, shares information and resources, and offers personal serenity both on-air and online.

MISSION STATEMENT 

Rock and Recovery™ mobilizes and supports a regional and national recovery community that grows and heals together through the therapeutic power of music and shared messages of hope and inspiration.

FROM AKRON, OHIO

Based in Akron, Ohio – the birthplace of Alcoholics Anonymous and the modern recovery movement – Rock and Recovery™ mixes music with stories and resources that will inspire and offer strength and hope to support each individual recovery journey.

THE TUNES

Rock and Recovery™ uses the healing power of music as a platform for support featuring an extensive mix of specially curated songs. The music is uplifting (but not preachy), reflective (but not spiritual), and features many popular and classic songs you already know and love.

THE MESSAGING

Rock and Recovery™ weaves “information capsules” – personal stories, anecdotes and real-time, modern intervention strategies – from professional health-care providers, recovering addicts and their families, artists, musicians, and many more. Listen for the ultra-personal My Recovery Rocks sound bytes and Rock and Recovery™ Minutes on air and online, and visit the website or download the app for full live interviews, through Recovery Talks!

THE DELIVERY

Rock and Recovery™ is highly accessible, providing 24/7/365 support through a dedicated streaming audio website and mobile app, and airing regionally seven nights a week, from 10:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. on WAPS (91.3FM) Akron/Canton, and WKTL (90.7FM) Youngstown/Warren and western PA. Rock and Recovery™ also offers a fast-growing and active social media community on Facebook and Twitter.

THE IMPACT
