Learn how to ask for what you want while still building connection with others. These monthly workshops provide the opportunity to practice listening and connecting with other seekers who volunteer for SeekHealing, and then make new connections with local businesses and partners. In this way, you can become an integral part of helping SeekHealing grow and implementing the paradigm shift behind the organization. Whether it's for raising money or engaging people in the traditional recovery model, when we ask from a place of connection first, we don’t have to convince anyone to give anyone anything, we just share resources as a community to get everyone’s needs met.
Volunteers have worked on a variety of projects including direct fundraising, COVID-Connect and Herbal First Aid kits for those in need of detox and de-stressing, and organizing a 3 day Telethon Fundraising Festival
- Come explore the edge of your courage to empower and strengthen confidence

Mission Statement
Making opportunities for meaningful human connection universally accessible in order to prevent deaths of despair.
Description
In a hyper-local, community mental health approach, SeekHealing is a grassroots "social health" project to facilitate experiences of intentional and meaningful human connection between neighbors.
Piloted successfully in Western North Carolina since 2018 with support from Dr. Gabor Mate and other leading experts in trauma and Relational Cultural Theory (RCT), regional programs deliver the following at no cost to participants:
- Equitable public health education in social communication and emotional regulation skills
- Facilitated social experiences: substance-free parties, peer-driven support meetings, and community gatherings
- Human-powered technology solutions that facilitate individual neighbors showing up for each other’s social & mental health needs
