Substance use is bipartisan and the solution should be as well. Regardless of your politics, this is hitting us in the right direction.

Mamas, we see you. We are you. Join us for support designed just for you!

This Thursday at 6:30 PM, we’re launching something new.

Through their work at FAN — Erika as a peer recovery coach, Jenn as a therapist — they’ve noticed an increase in mothers dealing with parenting stressors alongside their recovery. It’s something they’ve seen over and over across the last two years, and they wanted to respond. So they built A Mother’s Rest Stop.

A new special series within FAN’s Women’s Group — a virtual space created specifically for moms working on their recovery, no matter how long they’ve been on that journey. This is a group that wants to know what it’s like to walk in your shoes — because they share the same path.

From the comfort of your home.

Every first Thursday, we put mothers first.

Amazing! Thirty-two of those requests for help came from people in Bay County.

Hope Not Handcuffs connected 𝟯𝟲𝟲 people to treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction in January. Our unbelievable Call Center team also answered 𝟯,𝟮𝟰𝟳 calls—an average of almost 𝟭𝟬𝟱 per day! Here's hoping all the men and women who went to treatment last month can end the thing that's not working for them and find recovery.💙

Thank you to Mary S. and Freda V., the volunteer Angels who helped us with the process. And—as always—our deepest gratitude to the many law enforcement agencies and community partners who collaborated with us in January. We couldn't do what we do without you! (𝗦𝗲𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀.)👮
