Communities of Healing
Spurring Economic Development
Seed Sower is proud to be a part of Communities of Healing, spearheaded by Fruits of Labor, one of our partners and funded by the Appalachian Regional Commission POWER Initiative.
Communities of Healing is a recovery-to-work ecosystem program designed to spur small business development and employ West Virginians healing from substance use disorder through the growth of social entrepreneurship. By utilizing a wholeness approach, we desire to create sustained Communities of Healing anchors that support economic growth while bringing those in recovery out of isolation.
