🖤 Today we honor Black Balloon Day.

On Black Balloon Day, we pause to remember the lives lost to addiction and overdose. Each black balloon represents a person who was deeply loved — a friend, a son or daughter, a parent, a sibling. Their stories matter, and their memories deserve to be held with compassion and respect.

Today we stand with the families, friends, and communities who carry this loss every day. We light a candle, release a balloon, say their names, and commit ourselves to spreading awareness, reducing stigma, and supporting recovery.

Addiction does not define a person. Every life lost was a life that mattered.

🖤 If you are remembering someone today, feel free to share their name or a memory in the comments so we can honor them together.

Celebrating Diane! 🎓

Today we’re proud to congratulate Diane on her graduation from residential programming at our Woods Crossing location.

This milestone reflects her strength, dedication, and all of the hard work she’s put into her recovery journey. We asked her if there was anything you could have told yourself 30 days ago, what would it be? She said "It works." Taking the first step to recovery is always the hardest.

Join us in celebrating her achievement and the bright future ahead! One step at a time, one day at a time. Way to go, Diane!🎉

Caleb has been sober for 135 days!

"...I was having overdose seizures regularly. Alcohol withdrawal seizures had been happening on and off for two years. I’d wind up in the hospital with no idea how I got there. I'd stay clean for a week or two, then relapse. The EMTs and nurses knew me by name. It was humiliating. I felt intense shame. I felt hopeless. I felt worthless...
Now, I'm working with my amazing therapist Evalyn at Iris, and I’m proud to say I’ve been sober for 135 days...I look in the mirror now and see someone I respect, someone who deserves self-love, someone who is learning who they truly are." - Caleb

"That year my addiction took over my life, I wasn’t able to maintain a steady job, relationships with family, place of living and found myself lost and hopeless and ready to give up on myself. However, I’m a fighter and cancer survivor who may have got knocked down, but was raised to always get back up and give it your best shot. I’ve been sober for 55 days now. I feel blessed and grateful to have been accepted to this amazing community and program and wake up everyday with gratitude and purpose!" - Justin
