A Community Conversation on Healing and Hope

📅 9/25/2025

Hampton Yacht Club

Substance abuse is one of the most pressing social challenges of our time—affecting individuals, families, and entire communities. In this talk, we’ll explore the deep and far-reaching impact addiction can have on every aspect of life.

We’ll also confront the stigma that often surrounds substance abuse—an obstacle that prevents many from seeking the help they need. By fostering understanding and compassion, we can begin to break down these barriers.

Most importantly, we’ll highlight the critical role of recovery. A whole-person approach—one that addresses physical, emotional, and social well-being—offers the best path to restoration and long-term healing.

Join us for an honest and hopeful discussion about the journey from addiction to recovery, and how we can support one another in building healthier, stronger communities.
