‘Living Proof:’ Portraits Share Stories of Addiction and Recovery

Reality In Your Face –

February 20, 2020 – We are honored that they would step forth and share their stories with the community and trust us to be a part of this work,” said Jennifer Muggeo, deputy director of the Ledge Light Health District. 

A professional photographer, Fred Hartman, volunteered his time to take the portraits.

“Photographing these volunteers gave me opportunity to put faces on individuals in the recovery process,” Hartman wrote in a press release. 

The exhibit is on display in the concourse at the State Capitol through the end of the month. The portraits will then be seen at the Westerly Library in Rhode Island on March 4. The team is eager to bring the portraits and discussion to more locations across the Southeastern CT region.
