At Center on Addiction, we are on a mission to transform how our nation addresses addiction. 

In 2019, Center on Addiction and Partnership for Drug-Free Kids merged, bringing together the expertise of two of the nation’s most prominent nonprofits committed to ending addiction.

Today, Center on Addiction is the only national nonprofit committed to supporting the whole family as they address every aspect of substance use and addiction, from prevention to recovery. Our approach relies on:

EMPOWERING FAMILIES
From prevention to sustained recovery, we infuse best-in-class science with compassion to support families caring for a child or loved one struggling with substance use.

ADVANCING EFFECTIVE CARE
We work with health care systems to provide effective addiction treatment, research and develop practices that work, and promote accessibility and affordability of care for everyone.

SHAPING PUBLIC POLICY
We advocate for the policies, practices and resources needed to effectively prevent substance use and treat addiction by pairing research and the experience of families and urging all levels of government to take action.

CHANGING CULTURE
We lift the voices of those impacted by substance use to eliminate the stigma around addiction in our country. We’re creating a movement to extinguish the deep-rooted misperceptions that surround addiction and prevent our society from investing the resources required to ensure no family loses a child to substance use or addiction.
