4,452 IS TOO MANY
Last year, Ohio lost 4,452 family members, friends and neighbors to overdose. While that's better than 2023, it's far too many. OCAAR believes one of the most effective methods to lower that number is also one of the most overlooked: Recovery Support Services. Treatment isn't enough. Individuals with SUDs spend each and every day after treatment, for the rest of their lives, learning how to live and thrive substance free. This is where continuing support makes all the difference.
Help OCAAR build and improve Ohio's recovery support services. Your gift will make a difference - a difference that will save lives.
RECOVERY COMMUNITIES
What Recovery Support Communities are, why they are so important, and where to find one near you.
WORK / LIFE RECOVERY
Many in recovery carry a record of their yesterdays into their todays. OCAAR is fighting to end the stigma and tear down the walls that not only prevent those in recovery from thriving but hold our nation back from its full potential.
Find the resources you need to re-enter the workforce and restart your life.
