In January 2008 a group of delegates from the USA, Canada, Australia and Bhutan assembled at Cannon Beach, Oregon (USA) to discuss the formation of a Buddhist Recovery organisation.
The meeting took place on Saturday January 12th and Sunday January 13th, in the Executive Boardroom of the Tolovana Inn. Meeting participants who joined the founding Board include: Kevin Griffin; Professor G. Alan Marlatt; Dr Ann Bolger; Sheila Blackford JD and Paul Saintilan.
The Cannon Beach meeting was video recorded by Kit and Ashley Marlatt of Cascadia Addiction Research and Education, LLC (CARE, LLC). An edited version will be available in DVD format in due course.
