Arizona Addiction Recovery - Art of Recovery Expo

William Brown spends a lot of time saying that life is better sober. The Scottsdale resident quit up booze and drugs eighteen years ago after a career in Washington, D.C., politics, including work during the "dirty tricks" era of the Nixon administration. Now Brown and his wife, Barbara Nicholson-Brown, organize the annual Art of Recovery Expo, which will be held Sept. 29 at the Phoenix Convention Center. The free event educates the community about addiction and puts people in touch with solutions.
"Barbara and I are recovery advocates. We want people to know there are resources," said Brown, 65.
"The recovery field tends to market to itself, but people don't know where to get help. I'm a good example of what can happen when someone is at death's door," he said.
Mr. Brown freely talks about his recovery, but says it is not unusual. He said our state, with its many recovery centers and therapists and support from state government, provides a good atmosphere for Arizona addiction recovery.
"It's been an exciting journey, but anyone can do this," Brown said.
