Summary

Tens of thousands of Americans die from substance abuse and suicide each year. Millions more suffer from mental health disorders. Rock to Recovery - an innovative, therapeutic music program serving more than 100 addiction treatment and mental health facilities in the USA - steps into the breach to offer participants help and hope. By writing, playing, and recording music as a group, non-musicians are able to build a community of support, find enthusiasm for treatment, and realize that recovery is possible. Veterans, trauma survivors, and those struggling with substance abuse or mental health issues can recover with connection.

This book contains 18 stories of people who have used Rock to Recovery’s music program to live a better life. You, too, can use music to heal. "Music is the medicine!"
