The Mission of JKF is to bridge the gap for those affected and effected by Substance Use Disorder (Addiction) who are ready and willing to seek a solution. We are closing the gaps in the recovery road through education, connection, while providing resources to those without access to resources. Funds donated to JKF are used to support entry funding and transportation to recovery facilities that use a peer community model that teaches a solution that have a program duration of four months or longer.
People in active drug and alcohol addiction will do damage to their families, end up in an institution, in jail, die, or they work to build recovery.
We create opportunities for people to take their lives back.
