Google has launched a new website that it calls “Recover Together” for helping people recover from addictions. The website incorporates a map user interface so that people can easily find support resources like meetings and pharmacies that supply Naloxone, a drug that prevents overdose by opioids without being asked for a prescription.
“The leaders of the modern recovery movement ask us all to be thoughtful with the words we use around addiction and recovery. Some common terms, even those historically used by those in recovery, can reinforce stigma and even discourage people struggling with addiction from seeking treatment.”, reads Google recover together page.
