Dual Diagnosis Anonymous of Oregon, Inc.

11/11/2025

On this Veterans Day, we pause with deep respect and gratitude to honor all who have served and continue to serve our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and resilience inspire us every day.

Dual Diagnosis Anonymous (DDA) was founded by a highly decorated veteran, Corbett Monica, whose journey after the Vietnam War mirrored the struggles faced by many returning heroes—anguish, trauma, and remorse. Battling severe PTSD, OCD, survivor’s guilt, and addiction, Corbett transformed his pain into purpose. Through the creation of DDA, he built a legacy of hope, healing, and peer-driven recovery that continues to uplift countless lives.

We extend heartfelt thanks to the veterans who serve within our organization and embody this mission daily:

🇺🇸 Gerald Weller, DDA Board Chair

🇺🇸 Andrew J. Smith, Board of Director

🇺🇸 Greg Martin, DDA Outreach Specialist

🇺🇸 Jack Boren, DDA Volunteer

🇺🇸 Frances Sallah, DDA Administrative Manager

Your service—both in uniform and in recovery—honors Corbett’s vision and strengthens our community. We salute you.

We must keep the histories of peer advocates alive, lest they be forgotten for their part in making the recovery model a viable alternative.

Eugene Oregon Summer bash!

In Dual Diagnosis Anonymous, the 12 Steps plus the 5 foundational principles of peer support from more than just a fellowship—they’re a lifeline.

For individuals navigating both mental health challenges and substance use disorders, isolation and misunderstanding can feel overwhelming. Peer support bridges that gap by offering connection, compassion, and shared experience.

At DDA, we honor the choice to be anonymous—or not. By choosing to share our stories, we help dismantle stigma and prove that recovery is not only possible but happening every day.
Hope and support aren’t just ideals—they’re the cornerstones of transformation.
