The Message in Our Communities
The challenge of addiction - and the promise of recovery - affects us all.
Speaker's Services
The Speakers Program, Straight Talk & Sober Living, carries an educating and motivational message to public events, community fairs, cable television, schools, Y's and service clubs, businesses and other audiences.
Articulate representatives discuss the pervasive social problem of addiction, how families can deal with a loved one's behaviors, ways for employers to help their workers, tackling the problem of driving under the influence, helping young people to steer clear of acquiring the disease, and other subjects.

The Spirit of Sharing

The Foundation appreciates the staff's generous participation in food and toy drives; helping the Salvation Army, veterans' families and local municipalities with holiday collections; volunteering for public television events and other initiatives.
