“Today Is Not A Good Day To Die” Video Series, Fundraiser For Sober Living Homes Starts Nov. 20

  • Thursday, November 19, 2020

The Launch Pad of Chattanooga, a recovery based sober living house for women in the Chattanooga community, will be hosting a video series beginning Friday and leading up to Giving Tuesday, Dec. 1. The video series will be released in 12 segments which will mirror the 12-step program for addiction recovery. 

The series will feature Scottie Bowman, the founder of The Launch Pad, and will culminate in a fundraiser event on Dec. 1 at one of Mr. Bowman’s restaurants – Scottie’s on the River at 491 Riverfront Pkwy. between 4-10 p.m.

The event will feature a variety of specials and 20 percent of all proceeds, including contactless carry out purchases, will go to supporting The Launch Pad’s residents, future residents, and other sober related programs within the nonprofit. 

“I am committed to developing an entire community of women, by building four more homes over the next five years,” says Ms. Bowman. “I battled addiction for over 25 years, now with 18 years sober it is my mission to launch other women into a better way of living.” 

The Launch Pad is a 12 step-based recovery center for women seeking liberation from alcohol and drug addiction. They provide up to a 2-year residential opportunity for participants with services and activities like AA meetings, group therapy sessions, and coaching to obtain gainful employment. The home is a brand-new build constructed by Ms. Bowman with sober living in mind and located in the downtown Chattanooga area.
