Proudest Accomplishments:

R.O.S.S. is known as the first Peer Run Organization in Alabama. President Joe Biden awarded R.O.S.S. The President’s Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of our service of 4,000 hours to the United States of America and delivering solutions to the problems we face with substance use disorder in our country. Our 24/7 Helpline was of much-needed support to someone in need and thought we should be recognized for the peer support work we do so that no one falls through the cracks.
