As 2024 draws to a close, we find ourselves reflecting on the strides we’ve taken and the challenges we’ve faced. Amid an overdose crisis intensified by fentanyl, the importance of hope, resilience, and community has never been clearer. This year, thanks to the unwavering support of people like you, we’ve accomplished so much together.

The Emily's Hope Substance Use Prevention Curriculum has expanded to reach over 10,000 students in five states! Our K-5 program continues in its second school year, while our new middle school lessons are underway, and the high school curriculum is nearing completion. We’re seeing firsthand the difference our education programs make, as young students share their insights into understanding substance use and making healthy choices. Additionally, our Post Overdose Response Team is providing crucial support to overdose survivors, and we're distributing thousands of free naloxone doses to save lives.

Your generous support brings hope to individuals confronting substance use disorder, helping them access the treatment and care they urgently need. Additionally, investment in educating our youth is instrumental in equipping them with knowledge and skills to prevent substance use disorder and build brighter futures.

With your support, we’ll continue honoring Emily’s legacy by expanding prevention, education, and healing initiatives in 2025 and beyond.

Emily’s Hope is dedicated to removing the stigma of substance use disorder through awareness, education, and prevention; and removing financial barriers for treatment and recovery.

Our prevention education curriculum is designed to give K-12 students the tools they need to make better choices as they head into their teenage years.

Prevention is key to ending deaths caused by overdose, and we need your support to make this possible. By giving children the tools they need to make informed decisions, we can create a safer and healthier future for all.
