Empowering Communities, Transforming Lives
For 40 years, Hanley Foundation has been a beacon of hope, positively impacting the lives of nearly half a million individuals. We’ve seen the power of evidence-based programming and are committed to turning these initiatives into long-lasting community institutions. Our mission is not only to prevent substance use and treat those with disorders but also to shatter the stigma surrounding this disease.
Prevention: Empowering Future Generations
Our prevention staff is dedicated to shaping a brighter future for our communities. We deliver age-appropriate substance use disorder programs to thousands of students in schools across the state of Florida. By fostering self-confidence, positive messaging, and positive peer pressure, we equip young minds with the knowledge and resilience to make informed choices. But our efforts don’t end there. We extend our reach to parents and caregivers, providing educational presentations to strengthen the support network for our youth.
Advocacy: Uniting for Change
Hanley Foundation understands that true transformation requires collective effort. We join hands with key influencers on local, state, and national levels to shatter the stigmas associated with substance use disorders. Through advocacy, we pave the way for a more compassionate and understanding society, where individuals facing addiction find the support they need without judgment.
Education: Equipping First Responders
In the face of the opioid epidemic, Hanley Foundation stands shoulder to shoulder with medical and other professionals on the front line. Through our symposia series, we empower first responders with the tools they need to recognize early signals and symptoms of substance use disorders. With this knowledge, they can initiate life-saving action plans promptly, making a tangible difference in our communities.
Treatment and Recovery Support: A Full Continuum of Care
Hanley Foundation provides lifesaving treatment in Florida at Hanley Center and Headwaters. We offer a lifeline for those who seek treatment but face financial barriers through our Lifesaver Scholarship Program. Hanley also provides support groups for families affected by mental health and substance use disorders.
