August 12, 2021 - Reliance Health CEO, Carrie Dyer and COO, Mike Van are talking about recovery….from 30 stories up! On Friday, September 3rd, Carrie and Mike will be rappelling from the roof of Mohegan Sun’s Sky Tower with Over The Edge, a fundraiser for Special Olympics Connecticut. They’re looking for your support to make sure they reach their fundraising goal of $2,000.

In 2014, Carrie participated in the Shatterproof Challenge and rappelled down the 22 story Hartford Hilton in the name of Recovery. The experience was not only exhilarating, but inspirational. After she had finished rappelling Carrie reflected about the experience, “Thank you to everyone for your words of support and encouragement before the event, for being there with me while I took on this feat and for the subsequent praise afterwards...exactly the methodology to remember and apply to our members, friends and family members who are facing the challenge of addiction”.
