Facing Addiction is a nonprofit organization based in Danbury, Connecticut, operating in the public policy and advocacy arena to address the addiction crisis in the United States. It coordinates national efforts through an independent coalition of national, state, and local nonprofit organizations to pursue practical solutions to alcohol and other drugs. A key activity is the UNITE to Face Addiction rally in Washington, D.C., organized by Facing Addiction Inc., a 501(c)3 organization, on October 4, 2015, with the aim of mobilizing grassroots engagement and moving the conversation toward solutions.

Its intended audiences include policymakers and communities affected by addiction, as well as partner nonprofit groups, with the goal of reducing deaths and suffering tied to substance use disorders. The organization positions itself within the public policy sphere, emphasizing coalition-building and advocacy rather than providing direct treatment services. As a small to mid-sized entity, Facing Addiction operates through collaborative networks to drive policy change at national, state, and local levels.
