MILITARY

We choose to serve veterans because we know how complicated issues of addiction can be.

Those who fought to protect us are at a higher risk for drug and alcohol addiction upon returning home.

 

At Empowering Mindz , we offer recovery and resources to help our country’s hero’s overcome these struggles and return to life and enjoy family. Many veterans struggle with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), some experience homelessness, and many turn to alcohol, nicotine, or other drugs to cope. 6.2% of veterans (1.3 million people) had a substance use disorder (SUD) in 2019.

65% percent of veterans who enter a treatment program (inpatient or outpatient) report alcohol as the substance they most frequently misuse, which is almost double that of the general population.
