Funds raised will support AARC and substance use disorder interventions and priority needs of The Children’s Foundation.

The opposite of addiction is connection.” -Dr. Matt LaCasse, Director, AARC

THE PROBLEM

Youth in our communities are dying because of substance use; addiction is a disease that often develops during vulnerable teen years. Those who are struggling with substance use disorder may often struggle with other mental health disorders that require specialized therapy to treat conditions simultaneously. Unfortunately, services like this are sparse for youth. Our current system is leaving patients without appropriate care and as a tragic result, young lives are being lost.

THE SOLUTION

Adolescent Addiction Recovery Center (AARC) is a new, comprehensive, outpatient-based clinic for adolescents struggling with substance use and mental health. Using specialized therapy, the clinic focuses on empowering youth to make actions that bring them closer to their values and the things they care about, building connectedness with themselves, their families and those around them. AARC also provides treatment for psychiatric issues that often accompany substance use, including anxiety and depression.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

AARC is possible thanks to the philanthropic generosity of donors like you. Your support is essential to maintaining and growing this crucial resource for youth. Join us in this important effort as an attendee or sponsor. Your gift will change and save lives.
