To Our Event Guests, Donors, and Sponsors,

Everyday, individuals and families face uphill battles, countless barriers, and broken systems in their fight against Substance Use Disorder. The daily struggle toward sobriety- and the overwhelming challenge of rebuilding a life with limited resources- is the “why” behind The Million Mile Project. 

Through our Treatment Placement Assistance Program, Post-Treatment Mentorship Program, and family guidance, we support individuals and families navigating recovery. Our commitment is to alleviate the overwhelming burden, instill hope, and help individuals rediscover purpose where it may be absent. 

Our mission is to walk with each person from start to freedom, for a million miles and more. With your help, we can do just that.

We thank you for your support!
