Community
Substance Use Disorder has been steadily increasing in the United States for decades and since 1999, the number of drug overdose deaths has more than quadrupled. Drug overdose is now the #1 cause of death in Americans under age 50.
The Beading Hearts Overdose Loss Support Group is peer run and professionally supported. Our mission is to provide bereavement support groups to individuals and families struggling in the aftermath of loss to substance use or an overdose death. Participating in a support group with others who have suffered the same kind of loss can be powerful by providing validation, normalcy and hope. Many discover their own strength and resilience even though the pain of their loss will always be with them. Our group is open to people of all race, orientation and religious practices.
We are here to help. Please reach out to us.
