Lisa Bright is the CEO of the Will Bright Foundations, named after her son Will. From their website https://willbrightfoundation.com
“Will Bright was a kind, caring friend o all – and also a drug addict. He tried so hard to overcome his addiction, but when he left rehab he had nowhere to go to get a fresh start. He got into drugs at such an early age that he really had no formal raining of any kind, beyond a high school education. When you feel like you don’t have a purpose, drugs are an easy fix. you are always one decision away from disaster.
After going through numerous rehabs all over the United States, he just couldn’t shake his drug habit, and died of an overdose in 2012 at age 25. His parents, Bill and Lisa Bright of Trussville, have decided to channel heir grief to ry to stop this from happening to anyone else.”
“Our mission is to fill a need in the central/west Alabama area for a secondary form of recovery. Sometimes, people who have completed a recovery program need assistance in taking that very important “next step”.
This mission is being completed through Restoration Springs, our transitional center located in Fayette, Alabama. We call it “transitional” because our residents will be transitioning to a life not dominated by addiction!
- Offer scholarships to those unable to afford intake fees to recovery centers
- Provide next step/transitional living, counseling, job readiness training and placement
- Extend awareness, legislation and educational information on the Opioid Crisis through our Washington, DC Coalition Group, Voices for Non-Opioid Choices”
