We’re deeply moved by our recent participation in the Black Poster Project’s "Silent Memorials." The event was a profound experience, showcasing hundreds of posters that honored the beautiful souls lost to addiction. As attendees walked through the powerful display, they engaged with the stories of those who struggled, reflecting on their lives and battles. Thank you to everyone who joined us in remembering and raising awareness about the impact of addiction. Your presence and support make a meaningful difference. #BlackPosterProject #AddictionAwareness
