The Council of Southeast Pennsylvania, Inc.                                                   and           Pennsylvania Recovery Organization --      Achieving Community Together (PRO-ACT)  Recovery in Our Communities December 30, 2014  www.councilsepa.org Information and Recovery Support Line 24/7: 800-221-6333 Tree Symbolizes Hope of Recovery From Addiction The Council of Southeast Pennsylvania, Inc. and  PRO-ACT hosted our 24th annual Tree of Hope dedication ceremony inside the Bucks County Courthouse lobby in Doylestown on Dec. 17.   The event celebrated freedom from addiction; honored those successfully achieving recovery; dedicated hope to those still struggling; honored those working in the field; and commemorated the lives lost to the stigmatized, misunderstood disease.  Personalized ornaments, bearing the names or initials of people being honored, were hung on the 18-foot tree during the ceremony.   Bucks County Court of Common Pleas Judge Rea B. Boylan was presented with the Ambassador of Recovery Award for her work helping to reduce the impact of addiction on the local community.  In addition, the Tom Nelson Award was given to volunteers Jennifer Seitzer of Quakertown, William McFaden of Doylestown, Elizabeth Tomaszewski of Levittown and Tom Kearns of Croyden.  Your Support is Appreciated! As a multi-county charity organization, The Council's reach extends throughout the five counties of Southeast Pennsylvania. Your annual support joins together professionals in the substance abuse and mental health field with individuals and families who have been impacted by addiction, trauma and other related health issues. We have achieved great success this year, but there is still much work to be done.  Without your help, The Council and PRO-ACT can not continue to offer the high level of prevention, intervention, advocacy and recovery support services that are so desperately needed in our communities.  Please remember to make your annual gift to support this life-saving work and help us continue making a real difference in the recovery community.             Click here to donate Volunteer for The Council/PRO-ACT !!

	Dear Joseph, The last thing teenagers want to feel is left out. I see it with the kids in my school all the time – the pressure to “fit in” drives them to be people that they’re not. They make bad decisions and try drugs, often to avoid feeling like an outcast. But I choose a different way. I choose to rise above negative pressures, be myself and have the control to make my own decisions. The Partnership for Drug-Free Kids’ teen program, Above the Influence (ATI), has inspired me to live this way. My future is really important to me. I want  to move New York City to attend art school and start a career there. None of my dreams will be possible if I become someone else’s version of me, and they certainly won't be possible if I were to abuse drugs or alcohol. The message of ATI, and the community behind it, has given me the confidence I need to be myself. The Partnership needs your help to keep ATI alive, so that new generations can be prepared to face their futures with confidence, and handle any challenges that come their way. Please consider supporting the Partnership with a tax-deductible donation today. They have helped me, and millions of other teens, be true to ourselves. -Geena

	Dear Joseph, This is your last chance to give your year-end, tax-deductible gift to the Partnership. Your gift will provide much-needed direct support to families who need you. Here’s what parents and teens are saying about our programs:    “People don’t want to talk about their kid’s drug problem, but I received concrete advice on how to deal with my situation."  “Your teen program has shown me that drugs change your perception. I prefer to think with my actual brain - the real me, not a brain under the influence.” “I was saved emotionally and physically. I had a place to turn to. You were always there and the Helpline was wonderful."  Please make a tax-deductible donation to the Partnership right now to ensure that all families get the help that they need to prevent and address teen substance abuse and addiction. Thank you for your support. Have a healthy, happy and safe new year. All good wishes, Steve Pasierb, President and CEO Partnership for Drug-Free Kids
