This critical examination ensures that every house approved by M-ROCC can achieve its highest potential and provide excellent services to recovery patients. Hardy understands the treatment needs of those battling addiction because he has been in long-term recovery himself since 1993. He’s served in a range of leadership roles, working for Baltimore Substance Abuse Systems and serving as a director with Light Street Housing Corporation. His radio show “Beyond the Wire” discusses the misrepresented narrative of Baltimore portrayed in the media and offers a fuller perspective on the city. “I hope to make lasting change for Baltimore. I’ve committed my life to it,” he says.

Doing it right “Family Recovery Program is a great example of how you do this thing right,” Hardy says, talking about FRP’s efforts to grow the recovery community and help expand access to resources. “Their focus is on family reunification.That’s the driving force behind everyone who works there.” FRP partners with M-ROCC to provide a holistic treatment that aids clients in all aspects of their lives. Hardy works closely with Dr. Jocelyn Gainers, executive director of FRP, to bring superior recovery options to Baltimore. “A lot of the time, centers throw up their hands and say this is the best we can do. Family Recovery Program proves there’s no limit to how much a treatment center can do for their clients,” says Hardy. “They go above and beyond for every patient and the community as a whole.”
