Addiction is a public health crisis. Together, we can overcome it.
Friend,
It’s no secret that addiction’s taken an enormous toll on our families and communities. But these experiences haven’t defeated us. They’ve inspired us to take on addiction from every angle and empower those who are working to better themselves and the world.
Throughout the rest of 2023, we’re lifting up stories of those taking action to end the addiction crisis. Please consider sharing your own story using our #CrisisWeCanSolve hashtag on social media.
Ensuring Mental Health & Substance Use Disorders Are Treated Together
Our partner Stephanie Marquesano at The Harris Project lost her son after struggling to find programs that treated both his mental health and substance use disorders together. Stephanie is now focused on transforming the system of care to better support those with co-occurring disorders, while the Partnership’s researchers and clinicians provide resources and educational information to strengthen The Harris Project’s prevention and family engagement efforts.
