At The Lovelady Center, we believe the most important thing we can ever do is this: LOVE WELL. 1 John 4:19 tells us, “we love because He first loved us.”

Before we teach, train, or transform: we love.
Before healing happens: we love.
Through every story of struggle, every victory, every new beginning: we love.

Love is the reason so many women and children walk through our doors and leave transformed.

At Lovelady, we don’t do perfect, but we do strive every day to LOVE WELL. And that, we believe, is the heartbeat of what Jesus has us do.

We invite the community to love as He loves us: want to be involved in giving children a good Christmas this year and giving mothers the joy of giving to their children? Call Donna Smith at 256.570.8176 to get involved in this year's Santa Shop!

I have openings available to supervise all licensure levels. With a wide range of both clinical and leadership experience, I can help you accomplish your goals of becoming an LICSW or just remaining in compliance with the state social work rules and regulations.

So thankful I got to be a part of the launching of this coalition today.

Join the Launch of the Southeast Addiction Recovery Coalition

The Southeast Addiction Recovery Coalition is a regional alliance of recovery-focused organizations from across the Southeastern United States, united under the shared belief that recovery is possible for everyone, everywhere.

A coalition of organizations united together to address the Addiction Epidemic

When organizations unite we build a constituency of consequence to advance recovery from addiction

If your organization works on prevention, treatment, recovery, or harm reduction this is your coalition

We believe we are stronger together and with a united voice we can impact policy and funding from Washington D.C., State Capitols across the Southeast, and in our local communities

Uniting peers with lived experience, families, clinical professionals, and allies from business, faith, education, and law-enforcement, we join together to save lives, restore families, and strengthen communities across the Southeast

⏳Strength isn’t just about handling everything alone. Sometimes, it’s about recognizing when you need support and letting others be there for you. Accepting help doesn’t make you weak—it shows self-awareness and courage.
Life becomes easier when you share your struggles, and together, challenges feel lighter and more manageable.🌿
