Some months back, we sent out a survey asking for your input on whether or not we should change our name. There are several reasons for this consideration. They include (but are not limited to):
Many people are confused by 'recovery' in our name, and think we must be focused primarily on problems with substance use
Many of us have very mixed feelings about the word 'recovery', including the idea that there is anything we necessarily want to 'recover'
People frequently mix up 'community' and 'center' and end up calling us the 'Recovery Learning Center'
Through the survey, as well as conversations with the team and beyond, we've discovered that the majority of us believe we SHOULD change our name.
So, we've set a date: January 1, 2019.
By January 1, 2019, we plan to have come up with and announced a new name!!
First, though, we're looking for your help again. Please fill out this quick survey and help us think up some ideas for what our new name will be!
P.S. We are leaning *AWAY* from the idea of keeping the 'RLC' acronym, even with different words, so particularly appreciate ideas that move away from those three letters together!
