Did you know that 40% of the children placed in foster care in North Carolina are placed there due to the substance use disorder of a parent/guardian?
🩵 When the parent heals, we help the children.
⚠️ Even before COVID-19 upended global health, North Carolina’s foster care system was already experiencing “record levels of need” driven largely by opioid use according to .
🧑🧒🧒 Fast forward to present day: substance use has risen sharply and record numbers of opioid deaths have left even more families destabilized …
and more children vulnerable. 💔
🤝 This is why we exist: to guide those with substance use disorder in their recovery journey with care based on equity, education and evidence-based practice for all communities.
🫶 Family Support Group Open To The Public:
If you have a loved one struggling with substance use disorder, we invite you to join our next bi-monthly family support group gathering on 2/25 from 6:30-7:30pm at our Charlotte location to gain helpful resources and be reminded that you are not alone in this journey.
If you know a family, friend or organization that would benefit from this program and group, please share.
