Recovery Stories

Amy Brune

My name is Amy Brune and I celebrated 10 years in recovery this year. When I was struggling I never knew of a person in recovery. I didn’t see it represented in my community or even in media. Now, I understand that representation is hope! I choose representation over stigma. I am married with two beautiful daughters. I own a home and I am an honors student. I have worked in the helping field for 8 years becoming a Recovery Community Coordinator at FAN, a local organization that serves individuals and families affected by substance use disorder. My days are filled with community events, family, friends, coworkers and laughter beyond measure.
