Support
While our operations have evolved and expanded,
Hope Dealers BTC Inc. remains, first and foremost,
a support group.
All of the volunteers who participate in our organization have been affected by substance use disorder in some way. Some have experienced it for themselves and are living proof of what can be achieved by living in recovery. Some are friends and family who have lost loved ones to overdose or have loved ones who are actively using and are not ready to accept help themselves.
Together, we #BeTheChange to help those we can.
No matter the connection to the mission, we have all become part of an extended family that is always there for each other in our volunteer work and our lives.

This beautiful woman is Amy Sellhort. She founded Multiple Pathways to Recovery as a support group meeting for people looking for something different. She wanted to offer support to every person throughout every step of their recovery journey, no matter what path they choose, in a completely judgment-free environment.
​
We tragically lost Amy in the fall of 2022 due to complications from an infection and a chronic heart condition. We honor her legacy by carrying out the Multiple Pathways mission.
The only correct path is
the one that works!
A new type of recovery support group.
We have reimagined what it means to be a support group with a new interactive format. We stand firm in the belief that each person’s journey to freedom from a substance, activity, or circumstance that makes their lives unmanageable is unique and needs to be supported to be effective. Evidence-based research says that making multiple pathways available leads people to successful and sustained recovery. It always comes down to what works best for the individual, and we recover together.
Meetings are currently suspended while our facilitator is on maternity leave.
Check out our event calendar. We will notify everyone when the new schedule is posted.
Until then, you can find us on Facebook!
Join the group. Join the discussion. Get some support. Contribute to meaningful discussions.
THIS IS A NO JUDGEMENT ZONE
Our new Multiple Pathways group is intended as an interactive and comprehensive community forum where people can discuss and learn about alternative pathways that have helped real people in their recovery journey. Our moderators are more than volunteers with us. They all have personal connections to the recovery community, in both their personal and professional lives. We aim to, not only focus on recovery from substances but also on relief from other difficult situations and circumstances that can feel inescapable. We will explore ways to heal from the trauma that can contribute to substance use and other mental health issues. We will discuss how to repair broken bonds and connections with loved ones, and how important it is to recover together as a community.
​
Together with members, guests, and experts, we will examine resources that are available in our local Rochester area, as well as other areas as necessary. No one will ever be excluded from support due to geographical location. We will discuss current events and issues that we are dealing with in our community, the country, and the world. Together, we will find ways to cope so that we can continue to deal hope to the people who haven't found it yet because one way to keep the peace we find is to give some of it away to others.
If you have any questions or concerns, or if you are interested in being a guest, please contact us at multiplepathways@hopedealersbtc.com or call us on the Hopeline, (585)633-8690 x222.
