It is a FREE Community Event. Everyone is invited to join us.
It is an opportunity to receive FREE NALOXONE and training to use the overdose reversing drug.

Katie Tidmore's lyrics are a personal journey from the depths of despair to using her voice to help others. An example is her 2024 single "This Time."

I got picked up by the law again
there's something about a September wind
that hits me different.
Days get short and the nights are long
that's when I start to feel alone
and long sleeves can hide the bruises on my arms.

And I'm alive, but I'm dead inside
My hopes, my dreams
You and me
I always sabotage it seems.
And here we'll be again and I'll get better
but the good won't last forever
because I feel safe in my own misery."

Fundraising Teams

The End Addiction HSV Walk is an opportunity for groups to form fundraising teams to raise funds to support the mission of Not One More Alabama (NOMA).

If you'd like to form a fundraising team for the End Addiction Walk, you must first complete and submit this GOOGLE FORM. We will send an invitation by email with instructions on how to set up your team.

Since 2016, NOMA has been inspiring hope to the many people impacted by addiction by providing educational programs, fellowship opportunities, resources and support for individuals and their families.

Fundraising teams serve many purposes:

They help raise awareness of the deadly overdose epidemic that has taken so many lives
Help to lift the stigma associated with alcohol and substance use disorders
Honors the lives of loved-ones lost
Connects people to each other and resources
Allows NOMA to grow its mission of support, education and inspiration

All NOMA Fundraising Teams will be provided with a sign to carry during the End Addiction HSV Walk that identifies them as a Fundraising Team. The team that raises the largest sum will be given the opportunity to share their "Why" on stage during the program, and will be the official leader of the walk.

Teams raising $1,000 or more will be recognized.

Resources

Last year, more than 40 treatment, recovery and support organizations set up tables around the beautiful Big Spring and shared information about services available to individuals and families who are impacted by addiction.

If your business is interested in space this year, please complete a Resource Table Application or contact our Family Program Coordinator Kim Holder / (256) 384-5055.

For the second year, Frogg Toggs will provide cooling towels on a first-come/first-serve basis, and Cooper Climate Control will provide a cooling tent!

Recovery Circle

Recovery gives us a reason to celebrate and inspires HOPE. The Recovery Circle has become an important, emotional part of the End Addiction Walk. Whether you've been in recovery for 40 years or one day, we will have a coin for you and we will celebrate your sobriety. With each milestone, the circle expands and hope grows for those living or seeking a life in recovery.

What else?

Stop by the tattoo booth for Conscious Ink tattoos. Plus we have new props for the photo op area. You're going to love them!

Don't forget to bring photos of loved-ones who you would like to place on the memorial wall. We also have a selection of large hearts that you can add your message and place on the memorial wall.

A Look at End Addiction HSV 2024

It was a HOT day in August last year but we all know that addiction does not take a "weather day." So people arrived at Big Spring Park in Huntsville for the 7th Annual End Addiction HSV Walk. We are so grateful for those who support Not One More Alabama and our mission to lift the stigma associated with substance use disorders and provide support for anyone impacted by the disease of addiction.

We hope you enjoy the video below produced by our loyal supporter and award-winning videographer Drew Callner of West Block Studios in Birmingham.
