Our Call For Action:
Whether it’s a problem with alcohol, opioids, cocaine, misuse of legally prescribed drugs, or any other substance, Substance Use Disorder kills thousands of Americans every year and impacts millions of lives.
Substance Use Disorder compels someone to repeatedly use substances or engage in behaviors even though they have harmful consequences. This behavior threatens a person’s basic health and safety, destroys the critical development of life skills and outcomes, and damages emotional development and relationships.
