The Black Poster Project exists to honor lives lost to substance use and to transform grief into awareness, prevention, education, and hope.
Through hundreds of individual memorial posters, each featuring the face and story of a beloved person, the project creates a powerful visual reminder that addiction affects real people, real families, and real communities—not statistics.
Mission:
- Humanize the epidemic by sharing the faces and stories behind the numbers, reminding the world that every life matters.
- Educate and raise awareness about substance use disorder, recovery, prevention, and mental health through public displays, community events, and school outreach programs.
- Support families and loved ones by providing a meaningful way to honor those they have lost with dignity, compassion, and remembrance.
- Reduce stigma surrounding substance use disorder and mental health by fostering empathy, understanding, and open conversations within our communities.
- Inspire action by encouraging individuals, community leaders, educators, and organizations to engage in prevention, advocacy, recovery support, and lifesaving initiatives.
Each poster represents a life loved, a story worth remembering, and a family forever changed. Together, these memorials form a collective call for compassion, awareness, healing, and hope - working toward a future where fewer lives are lost, more people find recovery, and no family feels alone in their grief.
The Black Poster Project travels across the nation to share its message and raise awareness about the devastating impact of substance use disorder on individuals, families, and communities.
Each display serves as a powerful reminder that behind every poster is a life that mattered, a family forever changed, and a story that deserves to be remembered.
Together, we can turn loss into purpose, grief into action, and remembrance into prevention. By sharing these stories, we help break the stigma surrounding substance use disorder, encourage meaningful conversations, and inspire hope for those still struggling.
A special thank you to the Monroe Township Mayor’s Committee on Addiction Awareness, Living Recovery Network, and the New Jersey State Police for bringing the Black Poster Project to Southern New Jersey. Your commitment to education, awareness, prevention, and recovery is helping to ensure that these stories are seen, these lives are remembered, and these important conversations continue within our communities.
Let's come together, stand united, and find strength in numbers as we honor those we've lost, support those in recovery, and work toward a future where fewer families experience this heartbreak.
