This is the moment you don’t want to miss.

Tomorrow, we welcome Cris Carter to the stage at Life’s Waiting.

From overcoming addiction to building a Hall of Fame career in the NFL, Cris Carter’s story is one of resilience, accountability, and transformation. With eight Pro Bowls, two first team All-Pro honors, and induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, his journey reflects what is possible when people have access to support, treatment, and a second chance.

This is more than a speaker.
This is a powerful reminder of why access to mental health and substance use treatment matters.

Tomorrow night, we come together as a community to support life saving care and to stand behind those on the path to recovery.

We can’t wait to be in the room with you.

💚 Hope lives here.

Drug Take Back Day is April 25th! Here is what the DEA has to say about this event – “Too often, unused prescription drugs find their way into the wrong hands. That's dangerous and often tragic. That's why it was great to see thousands of folks from across the country clean out their medicine cabinets and turn in - safely and anonymously - a record amount of prescription drugs.” If you want more information about where the closest collection site is to you, please use this link: https://www.dea.gov/takebackday?src=deatakeback.com
