About this Event

Join Our In Person Workshop!

Ready to make a difference? Come to our Destigmatizing Substance Use Disorder in Your Community workshop held by Amare NFP. This hands-on event is all about breaking down myths and building understanding around substance use. We are focusing on Madison and St. Clair county community statistics to better understand our reality. Come connect with others, learn practical tips for reducing stigma, and help create a more supportive community. Don't miss out on this chance to be part of real change — face to face!


In lieu of a charge for tickets, we ask that willing event attendees opt to purchase something from one of the many businesses within the schoolhouse. This event will be held in the 3rd room on the left side of the building from the parking lot. The door will be open and marked with the event logo. Please reach out with any questions or suggestions at 618-331-4825 or [email protected].
