Our Prevention Department recently teamed up with our Clinical Department to host a powerful and informative resource booth focused on fentanyl education.

We engaged attendees in meaningful conversations about:

🚩 The lethal amount of fentanyl and how even a tiny dose can be fatal.

🚩 The difference between medical-grade fentanyl and illicitly manufactured versions.

🚩 How to spot fake pills vs. real ones using the DEA’s One Pill Can Kill campaign.

Participants tested their knowledge, asked questions, and left with life-saving information and resources. We’re proud to be part of the effort to raise awareness and keep our community safe.

When you share your feedback, it doesn't disappear into a void.

It lands in the hands—and hearts—of real people.

Every week, our Client Experience team reads and shares your stories with providers and supervisors. Whether it's a concern or a thank-you, your words help shape how we grow.

Like this one:

"It's not just her skills and hard work that stand out, but her warm and compassionate spirit that truly sets her apart... She has played a pivotal role in helping me rebuild my life after trauma. Her unwavering support and guidance have been instrumental during a challenging time, and I truly thank God for her presence in my life."

This kind of feedback keeps our teams going by reminding us why we show up. So, if you've had a meaningful experience, please tell us!

Your words may give someone the strength to keep going, even when the work is heavy.

You don’t have to be a therapist to make a difference. You just have to care enough to ask.

If you’re worried about someone, it’s okay to speak up, even if you’re not sure what to say. A calm, honest question can open the door to connection, support, and healing.

💬 Not sure where to start? This post shares a few simple phrases that can help.

World Su***de Prevention Day reminds us: the ones who need help most don’t always ask for it. Sometimes, it takes someone like you to start the conversation and help them connect to care.

📞 Call or text 988 for free, confidential support, any time, day or night.

Together under the Centerstone name, we will:

✨ Serve nearly 250,000 clients every year
✨ Support more than 10,000 team members across 350+ locations

This merger is about more than growth. It’s about expanding access, raising the quality of care, and strengthening communities to create a future where more people can find healing when they need it most.

We’re filled with hope for what’s ahead, and grateful to the communities, partners, and team members who make this mission possible.

Our Prevention Team and the Ripley County Police Department recently brought learning to life for youth in Ripley County!

Students didn’t just hear about the risks of alcohol, cannabis, and other substances; they experienced them through hands-on challenges.

In one exercise, a reaction-time simulation had students juggling tasks while their coordination slipped, showing just how quickly substances can impair judgment in everyday situations like driving or even walking.

Substance use education doesn’t have to be boring! Making the facts engaging helps the message stick and gives students tools they can carry into real life.

On International Overdose Awareness Day, we remember the lives lost and the families forever changed. We honor those still grieving, and we stand with everyone impacted by substance use and recovery.

To our team: Thank you for the patient conversations, the quiet moments of listening, the hard work of breaking stigma, and the countless small acts that make recovery possible.

May our work today help create a future where fewer lives are cut short and more journeys continue in hope.
