Mark Trombin and Monica Barzanti: The 3 Pillars of Italy’s San Patrignano Rehabilitation Program

Co-Movement Gym Podcast

This week we are talking with Mark Trombin and Monica Barzanti. Mark lived 20 years as a cocaine addict, trying in vain to find his path. In 2016 he hit rock bottom. He decided to get in touch with San Patrignano, literally begging for help. He now works for San Patrignanoas an educator, co-managing an educational program. In Marks free-time he practices sports, basketball, weightlifting and develops entertaining social projects.
Monica Barzanti, is currently Head of International Relations at San Patrignano, and began working with SanPatrignano as an educator in 1979, mentoring girls and young women in their recovery from drug addiction. In 1998, she joined the International Relations Team, coordinating and tutoring study visits to the SanPatrignano community and seminars on its approach to Substance Use Disorder by students, voluntary groups, social workers, policymakers, scholars, and people working in addiction, both Italian and foreign. She also collaborates in designing and implementing Master's courses on addictions. Since 2006, she has been a member of the Vienna NGO Committee, representing San Patrignano at UN events. She represents SanPatrignano in many International networks as a consultant and expert in recovery and prevention methods.
San Patrignano is the largest recovery community for drug addicts in Europe. It is a community that welcomes those suffering from drug addiction and marginalization and helps them to once again find their way thanks to a rehabilitation program that is above all, a program based on love and it is free, because love is a gift. Robert F Kennedy Jr. spoke about this amazing facility and its high success rate in numerous podcast conversations, which is how I discovered this program and facility. I hope you enjoy this conversation.
