Our American Family Documentary Viewing & Panel Discussion
Addiction is an all-encompassing force not only in the lives of the afflicted, but also those around them.

Program Objective
Raise awareness, and promote understanding and de-stigmatization surrounding addiction and recovery using storytelling and the lived experience of the film participants to engage diverse audiences.
