Introduction

One of the strongest aspects of faith is that it helps you realize you are never alone. Having faith means you can ask for help with anything, and that it’s not wrong to accept it. Many programs that are designed to help people conquer problems of various types do so with unconditional love, kindness, honesty, courage, empathy, forgiveness, and more. This means there is a strong emphasis on positive social connection and support – community – and therein lies a great deal of hope and raison d’être. Let’s explore the many aspects of faith within the context of helping to prevent substance use.

Why? Because it works!
