In addition to Addiction Recovery Month, September is also Suicide Prevention Month. We often find that these two go hand-in-hand and treatment for both is crucial. If you or anyone you know is struggling with addiction, call our direct intake line: 616-881-4790. If you or anyone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts, call the Suicide & Crisis hotline: 988. #suicideprevention #addictionrecovery #mentalhealthawareness #suicideawareness #addictionawareness

Guiding Light staff and alumni recently presented at a Face Addiction Now (FAN) meeting. They shared about our new women's program, and Mark, both a program alum and current employee, shared his story of hope, from opiate-addiction to long-term sobriety. This type of meeting is essential because we can only face addiction together, as a community. #addictionrecoverymonth #addictionawareness #mensrecovery #womensrecovery #faceaddictionnow
