EDUCATE. ADVOCATE. CONNECT.
EVERYONE DESERVES HELP.
Regardless of the reasons behind abuse or misuse, we strongly believe that everyone is worthy and deserving of help when it is needed. We recognize the issues that are facing the young people in our local and global community and are aware of the harmful trends toward drug and alcohol abuse. Working with professional community organizations, we offer a variety educational and advocacy opportunities throughout the year focused on preventative measures and information sharing. We believe that education plays a vital role in preventing addictions and unhealthy behaviors such as drinking, drug use, gambling, self-medication, and more.
If you, or someone you know, is struggling with addiction, we are here for you. We work hard to collaborate with organizations in the community so that we can connect you to necessary services available when they are needed most.
