How To Include Your Sober Friend at Your Party

Hosting a get-together or planning a party is often a joyful occasion intended to create memories and foster bonds. However, being a considerate host takes on greater significance, especially when catering to a diverse range of guests. Some people who can often feel left out or uncomfortable at traditional social gatherings are those in the sober community.

For those unfamiliar with sobriety and its impact on social life, it may seem like a non-issue. But the truth is, social gatherings where alcohol is pervasive can be challenging for those who have chosen to live soberly, be it for health, personal, or recovery reasons. Here’s how to include your sober friend at your party, regardless of their relationship with alcohol.

Understanding Sobriety and Social Life

Recognizing the critical juncture between sobriety and social experiences is the first step in being a sensitive and accommodating host. Many individuals are working hard to maintain sobriety, and social events can test their resolve.

The presence of alcohol can be more than just a temptation; it can be a stark reminder of past struggles or a lifestyle that they’re actively trying to distance themselves from. It’s not just about refraining from drinking but fostering an environment that respects and supports their choices.

Tips for Hosting Inclusive Parties

It’s not difficult to create an inclusive atmosphere at your party; often, it just requires planning and mindfulness.

Communicate Openly

If your sober friend hasn’t shared this aspect of their life, initiate a private conversation and ask them about their comfort level with alcohol. A clear understanding will help you plan an event that’s enjoyable for everyone.

Varied Drink Selection

Having a diverse range of non-alcoholic beverages ensures that your sober guests don’t feel like they’re missing out. Put as much thought into non-alcoholic offerings as the alcoholic ones—think homemade mocktails, interesting soft drinks, or artisanal non-alcoholic brews.

Mindful of Ambience

The overemphasis on drinking can create a charged atmosphere that may make sober guests uncomfortable. Strive to create a balanced environment where conversation, food, and shared activities take center stage.

How To Support Your Sober Friend

Being present and trying to include your friend in conversations or activities can make a significant difference. If they’re comfortable, allow them to share their preferred non-alcoholic choice, empowering them to participate in the party planning process.

Be mindful to avoid saying certain things to someone recovering or living soberly. Phrases like “you’re so boring” or “just have one, it won’t hurt” can be hurtful and dismissive of their valid lifestyle choices. Encourage your friends to speak up about their boundaries and respect those decisions openly and without judgment.

By taking the time to understand and cater to the needs of your sober friends, you’re being a thoughtful host and contributing to a more inclusive and empathetic social landscape. Use these tips for including your sober friends at your party to create a comfortable atmosphere for everyone. After all, a party is about people coming together, and the true measure of its success lies in the enjoyment and comfort of all its participants.

An estimated 1.5 million people live with significant disabilities in Afghanistan. Remnants of war are the leading cause of disabilities, with children being the most affected. Kamal Ahmad Zabuly, Deputy Director of the Accessibility Organization for Afghan Disabled (AOAD) in Kabul, is driving change after losing a foot to the remnants of war. 2024 Theme: Amplifying the leadership of persons with disabilities for an inclusive and sustainable future The leadership of persons with disabilities is epitomised by the global disability rights movement’s slogan “Nothing About Us Without Us”. It connotes the basic requirements of participation, representation and inclusion and calls for persons with disabilities to actively shape the conditions of their lives. One of the priorities of the global disability agenda is to advance the agency and leadership of persons with disabilities. In the past decades, persons with disabilities and organisations of persons with disabilities (OPDs) have already championed for the changes in their communities, and have been leading many of the community-led initiatives not only to advance their own rights, and wellbeing but also promoting inclusive development for instance enabling universal access to basic services by all; they have done so by taking both targeted and mainstreaming approaches to disability inclusion through, among others, consultation, data collection and analysis, and support with advocacy and accountability efforts. The observance of the International Day of Persons with Disabilities 2024 (IDPD 2024) takes place against the backdrop of pivotal global developments, from the Summit of the Future to the upcoming Second World Summit for Social Development. These key global Summits will complement one another in providing a continuous roadmap toward disability-inclusive and sustainable peace and development. By emphasising this complementarity, the theme chosen for the observance in 2024 aims to underscore the importance of leveraging the leadership of persons with disabilities to ensure disability-inclusive and sustainable peace and development for all. The United Nations Disability Inclusion Strategy When launching the United Nations Disability Inclusion Strategy in June 2019, the Secretary-General stated that the United Nations should lead by example and raise the Organization’s standards and performance on disability inclusion—across all pillars of work, from headquarters to the field. The United Nations Disability Inclusion Strategy provides the foundation for sustainable and transformative progress on disability inclusion through all pillars of the work of the United Nations. Through the Strategy, the United Nations system reaffirms that the full and complete realization of the human rights of all persons with disabilities is an inalienable, integral and indivisible part of all human rights and fundamental freedoms. In 2024, the Secretary-General submitted his fifth report on disability inclusion in the UN system. It reflects on the progress made to advance disability inclusion, highlights new or continuing challenges and opportunities presented through the Strategy’s implementation, and emphasizes key areas of focus needed to continue mobilizing the system towards an inclusive, accessible and sustainable world for all.

Press Conference by Adam Abdelmoula, Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Syria, and Ramanathan Balakrishnan, Regional Humanitarian Coordinator for the Syria Crisis, on the escalation of hostilities in Syria. UN humanitarians appealed to all parties in Syria to prioritize the protection of civilians as well as humanitarian personnel, facilities and assets in all affected locations. Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Syria, Adam Abdelmoula, spoke to reporters from Damascus today (03 Dec) on the recent escalation of hostilities in the country. He spoke via video link. Abdelmoula stated that the escalations is the most significant one since 2019, causing many civilian casualties, displaced tens of thousands of people, interrupted critical services and disrupted humanitarian operations. The Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Syria reaffirmed, “While the safety and security of humanitarian personnel is of paramount importance, the UN and its partners remain committed to staying and delivering.” He added, “we are organizing to undertake assessments and expand response as soon as possible, in whichever way possible, Whether directly across the conflict lines or across international borders.” Abdelmoula also highlighted that the latest hostilities come as the humanitarian response for Syria faces it is largest funding shortfall ever, “with less than 30 percent of the 4.1 billion humanitarian appeal for 2024 received to date.” He added, “The priority needs at the moment include food health, water protection services, non-food items, as the winter is sitting in and we are scrambling to provide as much assistance as we can, given the limited resources and the limited access.” The UN humanitarian official also warned that some of the public health concerns are already rising, “including due to the presence of unburied bodies and lack of clean water for days.” He said that Aleppo University Hospital sustained damage that has left hundreds of patients without essential care. For his part, Ramanathan Balakrishnan, Regional Humanitarian Coordinator for the Syria Crisis spoke from Aman via video link. He said, “In northwest Syria, the UN and its partners are providing food, winter items, protection and emergency wash services and other assistance through reception centers hosting newly displaced and arriving families.” “As of second of December, over 2,600 people, mainly women and children, have sought shelter in twelve reception centers with 15 NGO partners maintaining a multi-sectoral humanitarian response. Partners are prepared to redirect part of the ongoing winterization response to support the most vulnerable households affected by hostilities,” Balakrishnan added. The Regional Humanitarian Coordinator for the Syria Crisis also echoed the funding gap, “given the volatility of the region that has also seen a recent massive influx into Syria of Syrians and Lebanese fleeing the violence in Lebanon, such a gap in humanitarian funding is bound to increase the suffering of the most vulnerable and will have significant consequences for the region.”

Noon briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: Lebanon/UNIFIL Lebanon Occupied Palestinian Territory Security Council Ukraine Sudan/Chad South Sudan Financing for Development Persons with Disabilities Senior Personnel Appointment     Briefing today Guest tomorrow Lebanon/UNIFIL Today in Naqoura, in Lebanon, which is the Headquarters of the UN Peacekeeping force [UNIFIL] in South Lebanon, the peacekeepers’ Force Commander, General Aroldo Lázaro met with US Ambassador Lisa Johnson and Major General Jasper Jeffers of the United States army, who will chair the mechanism to support the cessation of hostilities. They discussed efforts to help restore stability and the peacekeepers' support for the mechanism’s work. And just to flag that our Special Coordinator for Lebanon, Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, also met with General Jeffers yesterday in Beirut. Both the peacekeeping force [UNIFIL] and the Special Coordinator bureau [UNSCOL] stand ready to support implementation of the cessation of hostilities, in line with their mandates. We urge all actors to abide by both the letter and the spirit of their commitments under the cessation of hostilities and resolution 1701. Lebanon The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs says that we and our partners continue to closely monitor population movements and are rapidly adjusting assistance to address the urgent humanitarian needs across all of Lebanon. OCHA tells us that access to essential services – which includes healthcare, water and education – remains critically limited. We continue to support returnees, displaced people, host communities and of course those who stayed behind. Yesterday, the World Food Programme delivered food and essential supplies to Tyre in South Lebanon Governorate. And we wanted to flag that a group of senior emergency officials from the UN and large international NGOs [non-governmental organizations] – and those UN organizations include OCHA, UNICEF, UNFPA and others – were in Lebanon last week, as part of a regional visit that also took them to Egypt and Jordan. They issued a press release on that last night, which we shared with you. Occupied Palestinian Territory The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs report that yesterday, a new Israeli evacuation order was issued in Khan Younis Governorate, impacting more than 2,000 people. This directive – which is the fourth such evacuation order for this area since July – covers about 3 square kilometres. OCHA stresses once again that repeated evacuation orders – which are now in effect for about 80 per cent of the Gaza Strip – leave civilians exposed to the dangers of hostilities and deprived of access to essential services. For nearly two months, North Gaza governorate has been under a tightening siege, leaving between 65,000 and 75,000 people without regular access to food, water, electricity or reliable health care, as mass casualty incidents continue. Our humanitarian partners report that the entire population of Gaza needs humanitarian assistance, including more than 58,000 people with disabilities who face further challenges in accessing food there. In the South, some people are skipping meals and searching through trash to find food – or resorting to desperate measures, including early marriage or child labour. Despite the catastrophic situation, OCHA warns that humanitarian access continues to be obstructed. In November, out of 578 planned aid movements across Gaza that require coordination with Israeli authorities, 41 per cent were facilitated. More than a third were denied outright, and the rest were either impeded or cancelled due to security and logistical challenges. Once again, OCHA underscores that civilians must be able to receive the humanitarian assistance they need. Whether they move or whether they stay, they must have assistance and they must be protected – and those who flee must be allowed to return as soon as circumstances allow.

South Korea’s president Yoon Suk Yeol has announced that he is lifting martial law in the country, just hours after imposing it. He was forced to back down in the face unanimous opposition from members of South Korea’s national assembly. The political crisis is the most serious challenge to the country’s democracy since the 1980s. The President, who was facing a political crisis and little public support, sought to impose military rule in what appeared to be a desperate gamble, after accusing his political opponents of being "communists" with “pro-North Korean sympathies” and engaging in “anti-state activities”. However the announcement led to mass protests outside parliament and was rejected by the national assembly. After some of the tensest hours in the country’s recent history, Yoon said troops would return to their barracks and the order would be lifted. Political opponents are now demanding that the President steps down immediately with some calling for him to be charged with treason for attacking South Korea's democracy and constitution.

The rebels, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), took over most of Syria’s second-largest city in a surprise offensive on Saturday. The breakthrough comes years after Syrian regime forces recaptured the prison in 2014, relieving a small garrison of government soldiers who resisted a rebel siege for more than a year.

U.S. president-elect Donald Trump joked at one point during his dinner with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Florida on Friday night that if Canada can't handle the economic effects of a punishing 25 per cent tariff on its goods, it should become the 51st state of the U.S. Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc, who was with Trudeau at the intimate dinner at Mar-a-Lago, said Trump's quip was quite clearly a joke — and not some sort of signal of a serious plan to annex Canada. #Cdnpoli #Trump #Trudeau #Canada #CBCNews Read more: http://www.cbc.ca/news »»» Subscribe to CBC News to watch more videos: http://bit.ly/1RreYWS Connect with CBC News Online: For breaking news, video, audio and in-depth coverage: http://bit.ly/1Z0m6iX Follow CBC News on TikTok: https://bit.ly/3TnHioe Follow CBC News on Twitter: http://bit.ly/1sA5P9H Find CBC News on Facebook: http://bit.ly/1WjG36m Follow CBC News on Instagram: http://bit.ly/1Z0iE7O Subscribe to CBC News on Snapchat: https://bit.ly/3leaWsr Download the CBC News app for iOS: http://apple.co/25mpsUz Download the CBC News app for Android: http://bit.ly/1XxuozZ »»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»»» For more than 80 years, CBC News has been the source Canadians turn to, to keep them informed about their communities, their country and their world.
