Steer In New Directions
Substance Use Disorder (SUD) continues to pose a significant challenge to individuals, families, and communities across the nation. It is estimated that 48.7 million people in the U.S. aged 12 or older have SUD. Despite the high prevalence of SUD, only a small fraction of individuals receive appropriate treatment, highlighting the need for expanded access to SUD support services.
The prevalence of SUD has reached epidemic proportions, impacting individuals, families, and neighbors in our community. Despite concerted efforts, many individuals continue to face barriers to accessing effective prevention and treatment services. New Directions has established a comprehensive network of recovery support services in McHenry County unmatched in the region.
Through our initiatives, we seek to bridge the gap by implementing evidence-based strategies tailored to the unique needs of our community.
