#### Meet HOPE Sheds Light
The mission of [HOPE Sheds Light](https://hopeshedslight.org/our-story/#mission) is to raise awareness and educate individuals, families and the community about the impact of addiction by having the courage to share personal experiences and offer strength, wisdom, hope and resources that lead to positive community change and long-term recovery.
HOPE Sheds Light will lead a transformative movement that removes the fear and stigma surrounding the disease of addiction through a loving, recovery-driven, safe, trusting and hopeful environment that brings wellness to the community and allows families to have the courage to heal and recover.
