Community Events 2024
We love supporting the community and other like-minded organizations. Our recent participation in great events, such as ViewFest at the Detroit Zoo, underscores the importance of community involvement and our shared responsibility in raising awareness about addiction and mental health. Sometimes, the support comes in the form of corporate sponsorship, and other times, it could be participating in or leading training for those in our field. Here are some places our team has been out and about lately.

Walk for Friendship West Bloomfield, MI, Sep 1, 2024
An annual family walk that raises critical funds and community awareness for Friendship Circle and individuals with special needs. One of their goals is to promote an inclusive community that welcomes and nurtures all individuals regardless of their abilities.
Recovery Night with the Florida Marlins, Miami FL, Sep 7, 2024
The Florida Marlins Baseball team has a strong commitment to the recovery community. One of the many ways they demonstrate this is by having a Recovery Awareness Celebration. Prior to the game, they have a panel discussion about addiction and recovery, pick a recovery-related organization to make donations to, and have a designated seating section for those in recovery. This year, we were able to participate and had many of our staff and their families there to represent Feinberg.
