Too often women struggling with substance use disorder and mental disorders are ignored, not taken seriously, or silenced. When women are able to talk openly about their addiction, mental health, and recovery, it not only helps to break down stigma, but it raises awareness of the reality of addiction and mental illness.
At SAFE Project, we believe all women deserve to be heard and should have access to substance use disorder and mental health resources that address their specific needs.
Take the #NoShame pledge: Join SAFE Project’s national movement to combat stigma, because there’s #NoShame in getting help for mental health and addiction.
My Recovery Journey: Recovery looks different for everyone, choose your path.
Melissa’s Story (Women & Recovery): Melissa Hinton, a woman in long-term recovery, knew from experience that women often face unique challenges and barriers to recovery and that something had to be done.
As part of our commitment to advocate for marginalized communities within the recovery community, we have put together diverse and inclusive substance use disorder and mental health resources.
