LUDLOW \u2014 Addiction specialist Melanie Gulde helped Phish frontman and guitarist Trey Anastasio after his 2006 arrest for driving under the influence and drug possession. More recently, she teamed with him to open this town\u2019s 46-bed Divided Sky Residential Recovery Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gulde knows the frontman for the Vermont-formed band isn\u2019t the only person who needs some backup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWomen recover from addictions differently and face more barriers to treatment, often leaving them feeling overwhelmed and discouraged,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Divided Sky, Phish frontman\u2019s drug and alcohol recovery program in Ludlow, is weeks away from launch<\/a><\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tby<\/span> Ethan Weinstein<\/a><\/span>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

That\u2019s why the nonprofit retreat center is launching a new women\u2019s scholarship fund<\/a> to assist those dealing with substance use disorder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is more than just financial aid,\u201d Gulde said of a fund that\u2019s already raised $300,000 toward its $500,000 goal. \u201cIt\u2019s a statement that every woman is worthy of a sober life, and we are here to support them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Women are more likely than men to face traumatic life experiences that can lead to substance use disorder, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration<\/a> reports. Yet because of a lack of money and support, they account for only one-third of admissions to recovery facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enter Divided Sky. Anastasio had become dependent on opioids after dental surgery before he began a court-mandated recovery program under Gulde, a licensed counselor who specializes in abstinence-based, 12-step work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The musician went on to create a nonprofit foundation, collect more than $1 million through a 2020 series of online \u201cBeacon Jams\u201d concerts, and purchase Ludlow\u2019s 18-acre Fox Run at Okemo property, which features a 20-room lodge with a commercial kitchen, meeting space and exercise facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI started Divided Sky Foundation to offer people the same help that I was fortunate enough to receive,\u201d Anastasio told Ludlow leaders during a 2021 review hearing<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve talked to a lot of people in the incredible, progressive, forward-thinking Vermont recovery community and there\u2019s one place that they all agree, and that\u2019s that we don\u2019t have enough beds.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After some neighbors voiced concerns, Divided Sky dropped its plans to offer medical services and medication-assisted treatment to help with withdrawal (Vermont has three such providers: Recovery House<\/a> in Wallingford, Sana<\/a> at Stowe and Valley Vista<\/a> in Bradford). Instead, it opened in 2023 as a \u201cnonclinical program grounded in compassion, mindfulness and the 12 steps\u201d for long-term wellness, according to its website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cost of a 30-day stay is listed at $7,500. Because Divided Sky isn\u2019t a detox or rehab center but a next-step recovery retreat, it can\u2019t bill Medicaid, Medicare or private insurance and instead relies on scholarships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t turn people away for lack of funds,\u201d said Gulde, who has welcomed 265 attendees in the past two years. \u201cOur mentality is what do you have and let\u2019s work together to get you in the door.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Divided Sky is establishing the scholarship fund with the help of Tamara Holder, a women\u2019s rights attorney and advocate who covered the cost of the program\u2019s first female participant in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI know it\u2019s already working,\u201d Holder said of the center\u2019s efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several Phish fan groups are planning to collect money for the cause in advance of Anastasio performing a sold-out set of fifth-anniversary Beacon Jams concerts in November. The frontman has good words for the new fund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis program,\u201d he said in a statement, \u201ccan give more women the chance to heal and start fresh.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
