The Problem

Estimated Ohio Residents Addicted to Opioids

There is a tragic story being told about the substance abuse crisis in our nation. This story positions Ohio as the center of the epidemic, with Summit County setting records for fatal overdose deaths as the crisis continues to escalate.

Whether active or in recovery, 1 out of every 10 adults now struggles with addiction to drugs and/or alcohol. When addiction is active, it contributes to 70% of the domestic violence and 80% of the child abuse and neglect in our neighborhoods. In Ohio, 13% of our state budget is spent on substance abuse, and significantly more is spent when federal and nonprofit dollars are included. However, the problem is only getting worse. For the first time in more than 10 years, life expectancy has gone down. Although well-meaning, the current solutions lack the comprehensive, long-term care that most people need. Restore Addiction Recovery is all about real change that lasts.

The Severity Of The Problem Requires A Different Approach

Many addiction recovery models are not linked together so they struggle to provide a continuum of care focused on an individual’s specific needs.

Often, those struggling with drug and/or alcohol addiction relapse between detox and the early stages of treatment simply because the two are not connected and there is time-gap in between. Thus, only 10%-20% of those going through a detox program are drug-free after one year.

Also, between 30-50% of those addicted to drugs and/or alcohol require a long-term program, more than the current 30/60-day programs. Long-term programs are hard to find and hardly ever come at no cost to the participant.

We believe a holistic approach to addiction recovery is needed — one that focuses on all aspects of wellness: mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional. Our ministry programming focuses on all 4 of these areas of healing.
