What is Not One More Alabama?
In November 2016 a group of family members and professionals began collaborating to address the impact of addiction on families in the state of Alabama. Realizing that incarceration, shame and detachment, and well as Just Say No or DARE campaigns had good intentions, but produced extremely poor results, the group that formed Not One More Alabama decided to step forward and share their personal experiences, knowledge, hope and support with those impacted by the disease of addiction.
The number of deaths from drug overdose skyrocketed in the 1990s after the prescription drug oxycontin came on the market and was aggressively marketed by Purdue Pharmaceuticals as "non-addictive." A second wave of overdose deaths came in 2010 with the rise of heroin use. A third wave began in 2013, according to the CDC, with significant increases in overdose deaths involving synthetic opioids, specifically illicitly manufactured fentanyl.
Opioids are highly addictive substances that work in the nervous system of the body or in specific receptors of the brain to reduce the intensity of pain.
Overdose deaths involving opioids, including prescription opioids, heroin and synthetic opioids like fentanyl have increased more than 10 times since 1999. The CDC reported in May 2025 that the reported number of deaths due to overdose in the U.S. was 79,526 at the end of 2024, however, the number is expected to rise as death investigations are concluded.
Note: Drug overdose deaths are often initially reported with no cause of death - pending lengthy investigation that includes toxicology reports. Therefore, the CDC releases provisional numbers and later updates those numbers.

Since organizing in 2016, we have actively campaigned to change the way we approach individuals in the grips of addiction and provide educational support to their families using evidence-based training. Instead of confrontation and shame, we stress kindness and compassion. NOMA is growing an army of professionally trained family coaches who share Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) strategies to create an environment that motivates change. CRAFT is an approach that benefits the individual with a substance use disorder AND their families.
NOMA also partners with organizations like Birmingham's Addiction Prevention Coalition and Mobile's Drug Education Council, to provide educational programs, fellowship events and grief support for families impacted by this devasting epidemic.

What we are doing is WORKING!
For the first time since 2018, our country has experienced decreases in drug overdose deaths. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention predicts a 27% decrease in overdose deaths during the 12 month period between December 2023 and December 2024. As of June 2025, the CDC predicts the number of overdose deaths in the state of Alabama decreased from 1,650 to 1,117 during the same 12 month period. Source: CDC
