About Us
Mission: 

To eradicate the opioid epidemic through arts-based educational, therapeutic, and community driven approaches.

Programs: 

Our programs employ drama therapy, therapeutic theater, and other art forms alongside sound clinical and public health knowledge. We have an original play that performs across New England, a middle school medication abuse prevention curriculum, a multi-media project about the veterans experience with the epidemic, and multiple educational projects with the Rhode Island Department of Health.

Our programs highlight addiction as a family disease. We believe the opposite of addiction is connection. Our programs use this framework as a guide: “We hurt in relationship, therefore we heal in relationship.”

Why Work For Us?: 

We're a group of passionate theater makers, social change makers, clinicians...and everything in between.
