Substance use disorder affects millions, leaving a trail of broken lives and shattered families.
Often, the stigma surrounding addiction creates a significant barrier to seeking help, and even when individuals are ready, the financial burden of treatment can seem insurmountable.
Emily’s Hope is a charity dedicated to tackling these very challenges head-on. We welcomed the organization’s founder, Angela Kennecke, and student ambassador, Mollie Kruse, to the show.
They told us more about the work of Emily’s Hope, including a new initiative in Sioux Falls, The Emily’s Hope Youth Prevention Coalition.
