Addiction Impacts Us All
Your donation helps improve the lives of young people and their families struggling with addiction. It also promotes community health by reducing the social and economic costs of addiction, such as lost productivity, healthcare expenses, and criminal justice costs.
Operation Hope
Each year, AARC must raise over $2 million to maintain its current level of operations. We keep going because we know there is a solution for adolescent addiction.
With the generous support of sponsors, donors, and friends, we can bring hope back to these young, shattered lives. Help us make miracles happen.
Every life matters
Every child deserves a chance. The average fee paid by AARC families in 2022 was just $40 per day, however, the real cost to treat a client and their family exceeds $300 daily.
No family is denied treatment due to lack of income or savings. Instead, treatment fees are based on a sliding scale relative to each family’s income.
Save a life. Donate today.
Your donation can help save a life, restore a family, and strengthen our community.
The overall economic cost of substance use in Canada in 2020 was $49.1 billion.
