Strides in Recovery is a Los Angeles based nonprofit which brings the healing power of goal-oriented group running/walking to clients in addiction treatment programs. As a volunteer coach of a residential addicition recovery program's LA Marathon team, I have the honor and privilege of helping people experience the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritutal rewards of training for a major endurance event, while turning their lives around. Inspired by the many success stories, I started Strides in Recovery to help others in the recovery community harness the power of running for maintaining their sobriety.

Impact Gala 2026 ✨ last night Leslie Gold, founder of Strides in Recovery and E, Strides in Recovery Program Director attended the annual Impact Gala. This evening was held at The Wende Museum in Culver City, celebrating recovery and the lives transformed through structure, hope, and opportunity. 💛

The night was filled with powerful stories, a delightful dinner, auction, and most importantly a shared purpose in helping those on their road to recovery. For over 55 years, Impact has helped people overcome addiction and build healthy meaningful lives in recovery. Funds raised through The Impact Gala will directly support individuals as they receive addiction treatment, stabilize in recovery, and work toward healthy, independent futures. ✨ It was an honor to be present for such an incredible event, thank you for having us and thank you for your continued support for Strides in Recovery 💛
