Progress worth celebrating. 💙

Members of our leadership team recently joined our valued partners at JECharlotte Construction, LLC. and Fleischman Garcia Maslowski Architecture to recognize an exciting milestone in the development of our new Specialized Adult Detox & Recovery Unit (SADRU).

This life-changing and life-saving project is a major step forward in expanding access to recovery services and strengthening our community’s response to addiction.

But we’re not finished yet.

As part of our ongoing Answer to Addiction initiative, we’re continuing to build hope, healing, and recovery opportunities throughout our region.

Stay tuned for future updates on our next project and the impact it will have on those we serve.

June is Men's Mental Health Month!

Mental health affects everyone, yet many men struggle in silence due to stigma, fear, or the belief that they must handle challenges on their own.

This month, we encourage men to prioritize their mental well-being, check in with themselves, and know that seeking help is a sign of strength and not a sign of weakness.

Whether you're dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, substance use, or simply feeling overwhelmed, support is available. Taking the first step toward help can make a lasting difference. Let's continue to create a culture where conversations about mental health are welcomed and no one feels alone in their journey.
