The eight-point “Call to Action” identifies best practices
that:
- Champion the
power of faith and science, working in concert to save
lives.
- Use multiple
opportunities for awareness, education, and recovery support within
congregational life.
- Deliver
accurate information and guidance for all life choices, especially those
involving alcohol and other drugs.
- Teach each
other to see and respond to early symptoms that cause
concern.
- Define
addiction as a family illness, responding to those affected and those
are afflicted.
- Honor people in
recovery, valuing their spiritual journey as a congregational
strength.
- Link
congregational help to resources within the community and
neighborhood.
- Advocate for a
society that responds equally and with compassion to all chronic
illness.
Let me know if you have any
questions or concerns.
