Questions, answered plainly.

Root to Rise is a recovery community in Mashpee and Falmouth, Massachusetts, and a program of Inspiration Is Everywhere Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. We walk with people in recovery on Cape Cod — offering peer recovery coaching, the Resilient Recovery practice series, benefits navigation, and a clear path to the resources that make a life possible.

Root to Rise is led by people in long-term recovery and licensed counselors. It is a program of Inspiration Is Everywhere Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit (EIN 82-5186366). We keep names off our website on purpose, to protect the anonymity that recovery depends on.

The Recovery Breakfast is now monthly. The first one is Thursday, October 29, 2026 — time and location coming soon. We will post them here, or send us a message and we will let you know directly.

Yes — peer recovery coaching with Root to Rise is free. A coach can meet you in town, over coffee, on a walk, or at the monthly Recovery Breakfast, and can also help you find a meeting, a clinic, a job, or benefits you may qualify for. Send us a message or call 603-721-2088 to ask.

Resilient Recovery is our weekly practice series built on The 7 Pillars of Resilience — vision, composure, reasoning, tenacity, collaboration, stewardship, and a weekly review. It is free, and you can start on any day. See the practice.

Yes. Our free benefits navigator is a private screener that points you to programs like SNAP, MassHealth, Lifeline phone service, and fuel assistance. A coach can also sit with you and help you apply.

No. No ID, no referral, no intake paperwork. Come as you are. If you want a coach, just ask — we will take it from there.

We need hands at the monthly Recovery Breakfast, in the kitchen packing meals, with job mentoring (mock interviews, resume help, a ride to a first shift), and helping someone call a clinic, a pantry, or a landlord. Fill out the volunteer form — no account needed — and someone from Root to Rise will write you.

Root to Rise hosts classes and ongoing training for recovery coaches — listening, ethics, resource navigation, and how to show up without taking over. Classes are monthly and the next cohort is forming. Send us a message to ask about it.
