Refuge Recovery Founder Noah Levine Donates Refuge Recovery Book, Name and Logo to Non-Profit Refuge Recovery World Services
The new RR Board is pleased to announce the transfer of ownership of the book, Refuge Recovery: A Buddhist Path To Recovering From Addiction, from author and copyright holder Noah Levine to the non-profit organization, Refuge Recovery World Services. In addition, ownership of the name Refuge Recovery and the three jewels RR logo have also been transferred to the non-profit organization.
This week’s transfer fulfills the longstanding intention of the Refuge Recovery author and founder, stated since 2014, to, over time, give control of all RR intellectual property over to a trusted non-profit service board committed to developing the democratic voice of the Refuge Recovery groups, consistent with the Refuge Recovery program established ten years ago. This transfer of ownership of the book and other intellectual property to RRWS is a victory for the entire RR community, going beyond the asset-sharing agreement sought by the former RR board and marking the beginning of a powerful new phase in the development of the revitalized Refuge Recovery non-profit organization and program.
