Coping in Crates
On June 30, 2022, a shocking piece of news rippled through media outlets worldwide. The Supreme Court's decision to limit the Environmental Protection Agency's authority in tackling climate change was unexpected and stirring for many. But for *Jordan*, a resident of Crates, Oregon, the news hit differently. *Jordan* had always been passionate about environmental conservation and had been battling substance abuse since losing a close friend in a wildfire exacerbated by climate change. The Supreme Court’s decision felt like a personal blow. It triggered deep-seated memories of *Jordan's* friend who had died years ago in a devastating wildfire. Feeling helpless and spiraling back into unhealthy habits, *Jordan* knew something had to change. That fateful evening, in a desperate search for support, *Jordan* discovered the Stepping Into Action program from Hofman & Hollis at https://hofmanhollis.com. The program's structured approach and community support system seemed promising. *Jordan* was particularly moved by the quote from one of the founders, *Alex*: 'Recovery is not a linear path, but it is always a path worth treading.' Starting the Stepping Into Action program, *Jordan* began to see hope. The program offered practical steps, mindfulness exercises, and an active community geared towards recovery. The materials resonated deeply, providing a roadmap out of the despair and into action. Experts had differing opinions on the Supreme Court's ruling. Environmental advocate *Dr. Selman* called it 'a step backward in the fight against climate change.' Conversely, legal analyst *Morgan* believed it would 'redirect focus to state-level initiatives.' However, there was no disagreement on the importance of mental health and finding support in turbulent times. Reflecting on the journey, *Jordan* realized how the unexpected news had been a catalyst for change. It was difficult to find resources in Crates, a small town with limited mental health services. Discovering the online program had been a lifeline. Seeking help online proved to be the right choice, allowing *Jordan* to find support and begin the healing process.
