Addiction Awareness Society
Misión
We are a Non-For-Profit Society with the sole aim of providing people who are at risk of substance, create resiliency, improve social skills, and stress management with the materials, resources, and support they need to overcome their dependency. Overcoming addiction of any kind is a momentous task, and we want to inspire and motivate people with stories of triumph. We also work with people who have a loved one that is dealing with addiction, and we provide resources and moral support to help them get through difficult times.
