Substance use and its negative effects touch every aspect of our lives, our culture, and our society. It discriminates against no one, and left unaddressed constitutes a serious public health issue that leaves individuals, families, and whole generations in its wake.
While its impacts are felt most acutely in one’s personal life, it is estimated that more than 700 billion dollars annually is lost to crime, decreased productivity, and increased health care costs (National Institute on Drug Addiction, NIDA).
Pathway Society strives to improve the lives of individuals, families, and communities through prevention outreach and thoughtful treatment interventions that invest in the principal building blocks of any healthy society.
