Today, the Community Drug Coalition had the honor of volunteering at Isaiah’s Soup Kitchen, helping prepare food boxes for individuals and families in need within our community.
Giving back is a powerful reminder that recovery, service, and compassion go hand in hand. We’re grateful for the opportunity to support our neighbors; and for organizations like Isaiah’s Soup Kitchen that continue to make a real difference every day.
Thank you to all the volunteers who showed up with heart and purpose. Together, we are stronger. ❤️

🚨 Struggling with Anger? You’re Not Alone. 🚨
Anger Management Class for Women.
Anger doesn’t just “show up.” It builds in the body, in our thoughts, in our emotions, and in our behaviors. In our Anger Management class, we break it down so it can be managed before it takes control.
This week participants learned to:
✔ Identify real-life events that trigger anger
✔ Recognize the four key warning signs of anger:
• Physical cues
• Behavioral cues
• Emotional cues
• Cognitive (thinking) cues
✔ Use a weekly anger check-in process to track patterns and increase self-control
This class isn’t about punishment or blame! It’s about awareness, accountability, and learning tools that actually work.
Change starts when we pay attention. If anger is affecting your relationships, work, or peace of mind, this class may be the next step.
📅 Mondays | 5:00–6:00 PM

🎓 IOP GRADUATION DAY 🎓
We are celebrating three incredible individuals who completed 16 weeks of hard work, growth, and commitment to themselves and their recovery.
Over the last four months, they showed up—even on the hard days. They learned how to use planners to structure their days, practiced tools to build a strong recovery toolbox, and most importantly, learned how to take care of themselves.
This wasn’t easy work. It required honesty, consistency, accountability, and courage. And they did it. 💪
Graduation doesn’t mean the journey is over—it means they are walking forward better equipped, more self-aware, and more confident in their ability to handle life one day at a time.
We are so proud of each of you and honored to be part of your journey. Keep going. You are worth it. 🌱
👏 Congratulations to our IOP graduates! 👏

💜 MOMS IN RECOVERY — THIS IS FOR YOU 💜
Recovery is hard. Parenting is hard.
Doing both at the same time? That takes courage.
Our Moms in Recovery Parenting Class is more than a class — it’s a space for healing, growth, grace, and connection. A place where moms are met with understanding, not judgment. Where your past does not define you, and your effort matters.

Reducing the problems of Drug and Alcohol Abuse in Hobbs and Lea County!
In 2005, the Community Drug Coalition (CDC) of Lea County began as a grass-roots initiative by local citizens and community leaders in an effort to address the growing drug problem in Hobbs and Lea County, New Mexico. The dedication, commitment and efforts of a small group of people developed into a non-profit coalition. The City of Hobbs, the County of Lea and others provide funding for the CDC. The CDC would not have become a reality without the financial support of the local governments and citizens.
MISSION
The CDC is committed to the reduction of substance abuse in Lea County, thus improving the lives of the entire community.
The CDC has a mission to prevent and end the use of illegal drugs and abuse of legal drugs by implementing a three-pronged approach of prevention, intervention and treatment.
Prevention will empower residents to live healthy lifestyles and identify front-line deterrents to vigorously educate the community, with a primary focus on youth.
Intervention will crush the environment and atmosphere that is currently enabling a large segment of the population to indulge and participate in substance abuse.
Treatment will develop and maintain an effective treatment system to make our community a safe and healthy environment in which to raise our families.
