"Mountain Top Cares Corner," as seen in the Mountain Eagle/Windham Weekly March 1, 2026

If you live on the Mountain Top, we hope you’ve heard the name Mountain Top Cares Coalition (MCC). What you may not realize is just how many of our neighbors and families quietly rely on the recovery support MCC provides.

Substance use disorder, whether alcohol or drugs, is often talked about in statistics and headlines.  But here in our small rural communities, the reality is much more personal. It’s about the sons and daughters, parents, coworkers, and friends finding their way back to health and stability.  
One of the most powerful tools Mountain Top Cares offers is our Certified Recovery Peer Advocates (CRPAs)—dedicated people who bring both professional training and their own lived experience. They understand recovery because they’ve walked that road themselves. They help individuals create recovery plans, connect with services, and most importantly, stay engaged with the support systems that make long-term recovery possible.

The need for this work is real and it is growing. Today Mountain Top Cares supports about 150 people each year, helping individuals and families navigate recovery, access resources, and reduce the stigma that so often keeps people from seeking help.
In rural counties like ours, there ae often gaps between professional treatment and the day-to-day support people need to stay on track. Mountain Top Cares helps fill those gaps—through harm reduction efforts like Narcan distribution; peer support; community education, and simple human connection.
Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation. It happens in communities that care enough to show up.
That’s why we hold our annual Mountain Top Cares fundraiser—to keep this work going and to remind ourselves that hope, compassion, and recovery belong to all of us.
Join us, March 27th at 7 p.m. at Last Chance Tavern in Tannersville.

If you can attend, we would love to see you there. If you can’t, your support in any form helps ensure that no one in our community has to face recovery alone.

Because on the mountaintop, taking care of each other is still what we do best!
