This year's #OutbackStrong Summer Lunch Program has been incredible. Our team worked hard to keep kids connected even in the grab-and-go format. We sent home activities each week and posted videos about them. You can see those videos here: https://t.co/QtcohVYnca.

Addiction does NOT mean you're weak or that you've failed. Most importantly, it doesn't mean you have no hope. Call Lake District Recovery Center at [phone] ext. 2 to talk with an alcohol and drug counselor. #recoveryispossible

What do you wish you would have known about addiction and recovery?

“I wish I would’ve known that addiction is a disease, not a moral failing,” - Tony Vezina, executive director and co-founder of @4DRecovery.
