We Remember…
August 24, 2021
August is Overdose Awareness Month, and September is National Recovery Month. Although recovery is possible, some are not able to find their path to recovery before it’s too late… We pause to remember these beautiful souls and do what we can to make sure their death will not be in vain. These people are everyday members of our community – mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, cousins, friends. Substance use disorder does not discriminate. It is a complex brain disease, not a moral failing…
Together we can reduce stigma by being open and honest about substance use disorder in our community.

Help spread the word to all those who might wish to honor someone’s life and memory.
Gone but not forgotten
Together we remember and honor all who have lost their lives to substance use disorder (addiction)…
