When we embrace hope, recovery from substance use disorders is possible. The Ad Council, in partnership with the Centers for Disease Control CDC, National Council for Mental Wellbeing, and Shatterproof, has launched a new campaign, “Start With Hope,” which aims to deliver a message of hope to those living with substance use disorders (SUDs) as well as those at risk of developing a SUD. Stay tuned for more information and resources to help inspire individuals with the motivating power of hope and connecting them with harm reduction strategies and treatment resources to start their recovery journey.
