Join us for another free community screening of the film “Written Off” on January 17th from 12-2 pm. Along with the film, we will provide people with take-away resources, local treatment information, and address the destructive stigma of addiction. Lunch will be provided. Please RSVP to ttankersley@greatlakesrecovery.org to ensure we have enough food.
The film chronicles the life of Matthew Edwards, whose addiction to opioids began at age 15, after being prescribed pain medicine for a minor surgery. His grippingly honest journals reveal the secrets he tried so hard to conceal throughout a decade long struggle to escape addiction.
