🧠 How much ni****ne do ni****ne pouches contain?
The answer might surprise you. In the U.S., most ni****ne pouches contain between 1.5 mg and 12 mg of ni****ne per pouch. But internationally, some products have tested as high as 47.5 mg of ni****ne in a single pouch, far exceeding what’s found in a cigarette.

Recognizing leadership that changes lives.

In appreciation for their outstanding work with Drug Court and their steadfast commitment to helping participants stay sober and rebuild their lives, Judge Bob Inselmann and Judge Todd Kassaw were recently presented crystal recognition awards by Alcohol and Drug Awareness Council.

Their leadership, time, and compassion strengthen families across East Texas, supporting second chances and helping create safer, healthier communities for us all. We are deeply grateful for their partnership in recovery. 💙

Kindness has a way of lifting people up and opening doors to healthier, brighter days. When we take a moment to check on someone, offer encouragement, or guide them toward helpful resources, we strengthen our whole community.

World Kindness Day is a reminder that small choices can make a real difference. A kind word can ease stress, a thoughtful action can spark hope, and support can help someone move forward with confidence.
