There is No Hero in Heroin Foundation

There is No Hero in Heroin, only those who overcome!

What is our Vision

To be the premier hub for information regarding addiction, awareness, recovery and support for the addict and those who love them, in the communities we seek to serve.

What is Our Mission?

The Mission of the There is No Hero in Heroin foundation is to promote awareness, educate the public and encourage those struggling with addiction and those who love them. We are dedicated to raising the curtain on the epidemic of drug addiction in our schools, the scarcity of rehabilitation programs, and the need for quality federally and state funded rehab programs and hold drug courts and law enforcement more accountable. There is no hero in heroin, only those who overcome.

We received our letter of determination and can accept donations tax exempt as of 6/20/2012.
