At this year's Hope Home BBQ Benefit, you'll be well-sated not just with mouth-watering BBQ, but with mind-opening presentations on the topics of how we can tackle addiction and recovery in our city. You will leave educated on the effects of addiction on the individual, family and community, empowered with knowledge and resources to make a difference, and finally, connected with a community that is dedicated to ending addiction.
EDUCATE
We work towards illuminating the truth behind many stigmas that individuals struggling with addiction or post-incarceration face on a daily basis.
EMPOWER
We won’t just talk about the issues. You will leave empowered with resources and knowledge to make a lasting change.
ERADICATE
We’ll envision a world where addiction ceases to exist and together take active steps towards a better future full of hope.
