My heart breaks for you. You are a survivor, a warrior. I'm sorry our world has failed to embrace you when you needed it most. It is absolutely heartbreaking to see how the negative societal stigmas surrounding substance abuse have tragically resulted in a lack of support and understanding within our very own communities when parents are most vulnerable and in need of help. I created this space to help combat the feelings of fear, loneliness, shame and desperation. Please take care of yourself, know you are not alone and that you are incredibly important. If you can find the time, please consider joining us for one of our online workshops. It's okay to take a moment to breathe, to take a step back, and to focus on caring for yourself. - Donna Ramelan Founder Mothers Aligned Against Addictions Mentor & Coach. https://www.maaacanada.org/workshops-and-meetings daily 0.75 2025-06-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61dcf244eb6a2c53c22352ef/1642190640418-SLGP4F36J4VDQC59P097/unsplash-image-gW32LWZFR5A.jpg Workshops and Meetings - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.maaacanada.org/mission-statement daily 0.75 2024-02-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61dcf244eb6a2c53c22352ef/1641959818138-DB2OWT4C3C8O5V84GWO1/unsplash-image-qF_KGJbgsOo.jpg Mission Statement - Mission Statement To Promote Health & Wellness by providing parents of adult children who are living with substance abuse disorders and mental health issues (Concurrent Disorders) an opportunity to learn, practice and implement new skills that will encourage a healthier lifestyle.
