Alcohol and drugs is a very big problem in our communities today. Lives and families are being destroyed as a direct result of the abuse. People who have this deadly disease are constantly living in fear, remorse and overwhelming shame. These individuals are constantly seeking a solution to free themself from their addiction. For many years the Moraine House and Alice's (for women) are committed to help those individuals. We are trying to lead them on the path of recovery by giving them hope, encouragement and a new outlook on life. Walk for Recovery will hopefully bring a better understanding of this Malady, a social awareness of this crisis and a more combined effort for a better society of tomorrow.
