About Us
Founded in January 2019, Pink Cloud Foundation is a registered nonprofit, 501(c)(3) charitable organization based in Minneapolis, MN.
Servicing the Twin Cities metro area, and surrounding communities, we provide financial assistance, support services, and other resources to those transitioning to sober housing from in-patient alcohol/drug treatment programs, or correctional facilities. We also partner with other nonprofit organizations from across the state to assist those seeking long-term recovery from
Deriving it's name from the field of Psychology, the term, "Pink Cloud Syndrome", is defined as "the state of mind, usually experienced in early sobriety (Day 14 to 45)", characterized by extreme happiness, sudden clarity, and over-confidence. This phase can often be followed by stages of unrealistic expectations, followed by disappointment and the eventual realization of the many life obstacles still to address and overcome.
Its important to note that a person's highest likelihood of relapse is during this "Pink Cloud" phase. Coincidentally, its often during this vulnerable state, that the majority of patients are discharged from their treatment programs.
After identifying a serious gap in available resources, and seeing a need for energetic, nonprofit work in this area, we formed our organization to provide sensible solutions and resources to those seeking assistance during the transition phases of their recovery.
Our Mission
Pink Cloud Foundation's mission is to provide financial assistance, support services, and other resources for individuals seeking long-term recovery from alcohol and drug addiction in sober housing.
Our Vision
Pink Cloud Foundation's vision is to make the transition from an alcohol/drug rehabilitation center, or correctional facility, to sober-living as easy as possible. By alleviating the immediate financial burden on these individuals, we feel, this then creates peace-of-mind, keeping them focused on their recovery plan, mental health, and overall well-being.
Simply, our belief is that a smooth transition into
sober-housing, not minimizes stress and anxiety, but greatly reduces the chance of relapse during this critical, and sometimes overwhelming,
time of change.
