- We know that addiction is a disease…not a moral failing.
- Nearly one in three people in the pews of any faith community struggles with addiction or loves someone who is addicted.
- How can we speak out loud and strike at the stigma of addiction?
- How can we best offer genuine help and hope?
The Interfaith Addiction and Recovery Coalition (savannahiarc@gmail.com) was founded in Savannah as a 501c3 non-profit in 2019. We provide faith leaders and their communities with information, resources and support so that people struggling with addiction can “and hope and help. We are an all-volunteer organization and most have been personally affected by the disease.
