Who We Are

Who We Are

Citizens Attacking Addiction is an independent, nonpolitical, and volunteer group of Louisville citizens driven by an allegiance to work together to improve our community and to see fewer lives lost to addiction.

Our Role

Our organization resolves to improve prevention, treatment, funding, and recovery support for families in the Greater Louisville area giving due recognition to the recommendations within the report entitled “A Call to Action” (released in March 2017) as a result of the Louisville Heroin and Opioid Response Summit held in Louisville, KY in December of 2016.

Quote

We simply must do more, especially do more to fund treatment, recovery, and prevention programs.”

Addiction is such a daunting, frightening disease, and parents are part of the process, and they’re part of the healing and they’re part of the solution.”
