Mission
To significantly improve mental health and well-being of those affected by substance use through education, Support, and advocacy
Vision
A world where individuals WITH substance use disorders face no stigma, and illicit drugs are effectively eradicated.
Our Primary Areas of Focus
The Significance of Our Logo
These presentations are to bring the students, faculty/staff and administrators to at minimum a working knowledge of the dangers of Fentanyl, opioids and substance use disorders.
Community Advocacy and Awareness
Organized events geared to transform perception towards substance use disorders and educate the public on the dangers of illicit drug use. Also to offer resources to those afflicted with substance use disorders.
To work hand in hand with other Non-Profit organizations to combine efforts and bring aid to the opioid crisis by advocacy, education and legislative change working to remove the stigma towards substance use disorders and offering support to those that have lost loved ones.
To actively work with others and support laws to fight illicit drug trafficking as well as laws designed to give aid for treatment of substance use disorders. Also to establish more strict monitoring of treatment centers and sober living homes.
To purchase and operate sober living homes staffed with life coach personnel that are there daily to teach a life skills program equipping the residents with a set of real-world expectations and skills designed to empower them and prepare them for the global arena of self-sufficiency. This will involve teaching them how to create structure in their lives, help set goals to meet day-to-day expectations and become more productive and responsible members of society.
The lotus flower represents a transformative journey from darkness and suffering to creation and renewal. Our purple lotus flower specifically symbolizes spiritual awakening, loyalty, and purity. The color purple fosters mental balance and stability, while also being known for its emotionally uplifting and calming effects on the mind and nerves. Additionally, purple serves as the national color for recovery and raises awareness for opioid substance use disorder. Meanwhile, orange is recognized as the national color for healing, embodying optimism, joy, and enthusiasm. The circle of glass shards surrounding the flower, with a gap, represents breaking free from the cycle of substance use.
