As we continue to honor Recovery Month, it's crucial to take a moment to remember those we have lost to overdose and reflect on the impact of addiction. National Recovery Month is a time for hope, but it also serves as a poignant reminder of the lives cut short by the opioid crisis and other substance use disorders. In 2022 alone, over 107,000 lives* were lost to overdose in the United States, highlighting the urgent need for continued action and support. These numbers represent more than just statistics; they are a call to action for all of us to increase awareness, provide support, and work toward a world where every individual can find recovery and healing. At A Safe Haven, we remain committed to offering compassionate care and resources for those affected by substance use disorder and other behavioral health challenges. Let's honor the memory of those we've lost by dedicating ourselves to fostering recovery, reducing stigma, and supporting those in need. We encourage everyone to learn more about the resources available and to join us in supporting efforts that can make a difference in the lives of individuals affected by substance use disorder: https://bit.ly/3YZ9XTC *Source: National Center for Health Statistics #ASafeHaven #RecoveryMonth2024 #RecoveryMonth #InMemory #EndTheStigma #SupportRecovery #HopeAndHealing #ASH #EndHomelessness

Volunteer Spotlight: Meet William from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois! This summer, William joined us as a volunteer at the A Safe Haven Food Pantry, and he had an incredibly meaningful experience. In William's words: "My experience at A Safe Haven has been really, really good! I enjoyed working in the pantry. At first, I was helping stock the tables, getting everything out, taking everything out of the boxes, and then I started helping some of the customers... getting the food they wanted, carrying it out for them, and walking them to their car. I loved spending some time connecting with them. It was a really special moment for me; hearing their stories and seeing how places like this A Safe Haven, helps them out. It's truly inspiring." We're so grateful for volunteers like William who give their time to support our community.
